>>53082646This. In the case of HGSS, I think it’s only better than GSC when it comes to the post game. If I ever make a romhack, it’s going to be a simple edit of GSC featuring:
>1All Gen 2 mon (aside from Larvitar line) available in Johto; all mon available without trades.
>2Stat fixes. Sneasel is complete shit for having unusable STAB. Kingler could use some SPA. Hypno was gutted by the special stat split. Some mon are simply shit (Ledian is actually better than yanma kek). Many such cases.
>3Reusable TMs and removable HMs.
>4Higher level mon in some areas. I can’t recall ever needing to grind, but this would be handy for swapping team composition.
That’s all I feel like GSC needs, realistically. I know there are ways to modify/improve the box system now, but I’m unsure if that could still be played without emulation.
