Platinum isn't even slow. HGSS HP goes down slower than Platinum's for some reason even though it doesn't have the Saving a lot of data... thing.

Not in the same capacity. SALOD happens every time you use the PC in Platinum, it's rarer in HGSS.

If you have to play a modified version on an emulator then it's not a perfect game.
Even if you emulate so it's not slow as fuck it still has the most HM bloat in the series. Enjoy wasting a moveslot for HMs on a team member or running back to a PC every time you need a slave

Six HMs are required for completion in both DPPt and HGSS, more than any other game in the series. Gen 2 had a lot too, but at least it didn't require Rock Climb for no reason

I do like platinum. Got me back into pokemon as an adult in college so they always have a special place for me. Giratina is still probably my favorite legendary. They fixed all the problems d/p had: shitty small dex, slow surfing, barebones areas were fleshed out etc.

But its far from perfect. Sinnoh has this vague sense of blandness to it. Most of the new designs use dull colors and seem uninspired, the gym leaders are among the most forgettable only second to kalos, and most of the music is kind of slow jazzy elevator music that puts me to sleep, the evil team and its leader are really generic and cyrus just spews these trite banalities that make almost no sense. Overall platinum is well polished and has a lot of features and solid postgame, as well as maybe the best champion, but I don't find myself going back to it very often, and when I do I'm usually kind of bored.

Explain to me how a move you described as "Bibarel filler" is better than anything.

Not that it matters if people cheat, but yes, speeding up is cheating. It lets players use simpler but more time-consuming brute force strategies like grinding that they would otherwise never consider, and lessens mental fatigue which would normally cause them to start playing worse.
I don't blame anyone for doing it, but it is cheating.

Grinding objectively sucks though, and even if you can classify speeding the game up as cheating its not cheating in the same way that hacking in 999 rare candies or other shit like that is.

I never finished Diamond because it was too slow. Put Platinum on a R4 and it still felt bad. I prefer Gen 5 over Gen 4 just because it's not as slow and clunky. Oh and I think Sinnoh is a boring region overall too.
