>crowding ut the Johto mons. No , making something as simple as a Geodude is exclusive to the Kanto region is bad worldbuilding. Making Route 1 have Pidgey during the Day Time and HootHoot at night is an excellent way to show off the new Day and Night system. While it would have been cool to run into Houndour a little bit earlier, not much is lost in Johto's mon distribution. The real issue with GSC is the leveling curve and the story, which peters out unceremoniously.
