>>53399319>GF gave attention to the gens that needed attention at the time of them needing attention,Except Gen 2 didn't get its needed attention at the time of it needing attention, that's single biggest point of contention with Gen 2 and the entire reason the "johto can't stand on its own" meme exists.
And if you want to say that Gen 2 was intended to be part of Gen 1 (more like Gen 1.5) that just makes make it even worse. "Even though you're part of Gen 1, your starters don't get wide movepools, special snowflake abilities, Megas, Giga, or any other battle gimmick to help with with the good awful stats we saddled you, or Dexit immunity; also you don't get a league, and you have to babysit a bunch of baby versions of Gen 1 Pokémon that even Sugimori regrets making."
