>much better Undergroundding ding ding you get one point
>much better Battle TowerI'll give you half a point because it's indeed an improvement, but nowhere near enough of an improvement to make up for the rest of the game's baffling design decisions and omissions
>more fun Contestslol no, it's one of the most barebones and mediocre rhythm games I've ever seen. there's a reason absolutely no one that liked contests ever talked about the dance portion of the gen 4 contests
>more Stickers optionseh, sure, I'll give you another point even if the removal of the letter stickers was cringe
>Trainer Customizationworth maybe half a point at best, picking from a small handful of predetermined outfits is a really barebones implementation of trainer customization compared to anything else in the series
>Following Pokemonit's also the worst implementation of following pokemon in the entire series, with your pokemon being ridiculously shrunken down, constantly teleporting behind you because they prioritized '''faithful''' walking speed over something that feels even remotely satisfying, they interfere with some cutscenes, and also forcefully stick you with affection bonuses with no option to even toggle the feature off
three points. it's still frankly a sidegrade of platinum at most, which is pretty damn egregious when every other remake at least makes some vague attempt to be the definitive version of the gen they're remaking.
hell, you'd be getting just as good if not better of an experience from a platinum romhack.
