>>47104088Hmm.... I’d personally lean towards E > RS = ORAS
>>47104028Sapphire was my personal first Pokémon game so I’ve got strong feelings here.
>teamAlways changes, but as for starters I prefer them as Mudkip > Treecko > Torchic, and a few favorites from the region are Lotad, Pelipper, Gardevoir, Absol, Salamence, Metagross, Camerupt, Tropius, etc.
>favorite characterSteven Stone has always been a favorite of mine, and Drake is pretty cool too. As for waifus, I’ve always had a soft spot for Flannery.
>Hoenn city to live inDefinitely Lilycove City. It’s got a nice beach, it’s in the northeast section of Hoenn so it’s probably slightly less hot than the southern towns, it’s got a shopping center and contest hall, a nice lighthouse, and I like that it’s close to the Safari Zone and Mt. Pyre which are a couple of my other favorite areas in Hoenn. Lilycove would be my top city to live in not just in Hoenn but probably in all of Pokémon.
>musicI love RSE’s soundtrack. My favorites that come to mind are the themes for gym leaders, E4, champion, Route 119, Meteor Falls, Sootopolis City, Mt. Pyre (outside/peak), and Abandoned Ship.
>did you like ORASSomewhat, yes. At the time, when it first released, I liked it quite a bit because I was just swimming in nostalgia and experiencing my honeymoon phase with the game. But nowadays, I much prefer to replay RSE over ORAS. I found more flaws with ORAS over time that just kinda kill it for me. The Exp. Share and Dex Nav are overpowered, they ruined several great dungeons by cutting and gutting them, they removed so many of the necessary improvements made in Emerald... it’s just straight up not as good of a game as Emerald that came a decade prior. It’s about on par with RS, maybe.
