>>48450388This. Joe and the SwShills know deep down that HGSS is objectively the peak of the franchise, so they started a slander campaign in order to make it seem worse. Johto is an easy target for them, due to it being near flawless apart from a few minor nitpicks, so they highlight these superficial flaws while gaslighting the community into thinking all the good stuff was just nostalgia, even though HGSS was universally praised upon release. It's a deflection tactic to make SwSh seem better.
If all of this isn't proof that GSC/HGSS are objectively the best Pokémon games, then I don't know what is.
