>>47112653For starters had more content than all other pokemon games.
1. more content
2. you can catch your favourites from the first gen and catch new favourites (like tyranitar or houndoom) where most games, especially modern trash, don't even let you catch pokemon without dlc except for shillzard or their new garbage.
3. YOU FIGHT MOTHERFUCKING RED THE BEST PROTAGONIST IN THE SERIES AT THE END OF THE GAME
4. Pokemon follow you around and they have very cute sprites
5. You have 16 fucking gyms you can battle and challenge again, giving you weeks/a month of play when you were a kid
6. The best legendaries and plot (legendary dogs are amazing, ho oh is the most legendary feeling legendary, lugia is imposing, selebi is the best grass legendary ever done to date, the cutest too)
7. THE BEST RIVAL, silver is a badass that actually feels like playing against a 4chan chad with how hardcore and menacing he is. Modern rivals are redditors or literal homosexuals.
8. Shiny gyarados encounter
9. bug catching contest
10. splitting special stat
11. new types
12. best fire starter yet
and many more things but I am busy
