>>56222667>didn't fix the barren story or lame villainsSilver is one of the best characters in the franchise.
>didn't let you fight giovanniYou could have done it through DLC from that era.
>didn't give any Gen 2 characters Gen 2 Pokemon"That's a flaw because I say so." Johto is a sequel, not a separate region. From Gen 3 onwards I would change the paradigm.
>didn't provide a way to get evos stonesPokéathlon Dome and NPCs.
>didn't have any Gen 4 evosPostgame. Although you could have Mamoswine, Tangrowth and Yanmega.
