Not to sound like a retard but it finally hit me that Gen 2 really isn't it's own generation.

The Gen 2 games aren't a unique gen like every other after it. They are basically just sequels to Red and Blue in the same vain B2W2 are to Black and White.

maybe you're just new
this isn't a new conclusion, but we definitely don't drop this line often enough

I think we say Johto is half a region / half a game from time to time
johtoddlers will concede-cope by agreeing it's sort of like DLC

Its still its own generation, but they were developed as Pokemon 2, and thinking of them as sequels (which they are) clarifies nearly all the weird things about Gen 2.

The presentation of gen 2 is virtually the same as gen 1. If you want to be technical with BW being a soft reboot in a way B2W2 added essentially a whole new dex of pokemon for new players.

In case you all didn't know, this was an average post a Johtoddler would make on a daily basis just 4 years ago

If you ever wondered what instigated the increased critical attention given to the Johto games in recent years, now you wonder less.

gen 2 is literally the only game people will do these bizarre mental gymnastics over their own HEADCANONS because they really want to treat gen 2 as dimunitive (even though it's rent free in their head 24/7)

the term "pokemon generation" was literally coined for gold and silver.

I'm not trying to bash Gen 2. I love Johto but the games make more sense to me when you read them as sequels to RBY instead of it's own Gen like everything after.

I love generation 2, but in a lot of ways it really does feel like an expansion pack to R/B/Y rather then their own games.

You can clearly tell this by how much harder it is to find the at the time new Pokemon that were introduced then and how easier it was to find all your old favourites.

Also that you can revisit Kanto and Johto does feel a little small.

It's more of a generation with an enduring legacy than gen 5 and later combined will ever be. Zoomers can keep seething about their shitty childhood generation.

Gen 2:
- Added 100 Pokémon
- Added breeding
- Added genders
- Added hold items
- Added day/night cycle
- Added dark & steel types
- Split of the special stat
- Added battle facility
- Added player gender

Gen 5:
- Added 155 Pokémon
- Umm... Added triple battles?
- ...???
- ???

You've been brainwashed into thinking a new generation has to mean a soft reboot designed to stretch the franchise on for as long as possible.
