It's lame how you can't actually get to any Kanto grass until you get waterfall and the last badge. But I did think this was cool as hell back when first doing this in Silver. The way the music kicks off when you make landfall is perfect.

Yeah I'm not sure why you're able to access to Kanto so early. Kind of takes all the oomph out of the reveal. You do have reason to go here early too because there is a Rare Candy to pick up.

Nobody knew what Kanto was in 1999 unless you lived in Japan. The region wasn't named in Western material until 2000.

The real reveal is after the credits when you get the "oh, you thought Kanto was just for the Plateau? Nope, you get to go back to all the old places too"

...at the expense of not fleshing out the Johto region in the slightest. I'd have much preferred no Kanto at all rather than a half-baked Johto and diminished Kanto region.

What more fleshing out did Johto need exactly? Ecruteak City alone has more to it than all of Kanto put together.

this.

anti-johto and anti-sinnoh hate started around the same time, when zoomers started making youtube videos.

all of us who grew up playing gen 4 loved it, and it wasn't because of platinum; i own diamond *and* platinum and i have more hours in diamond by far; my only full odds wild shiny is in diamond.

i stll have my childhood copy of crystal. i still have as much fun as i did as a kid, too. until a few years ago, i had no idea people hated gen 2 or gen 4.

I didn't even know the region had a name until smash bros introduced a stage with the region's name. I figured it was kanto when I looked at the map as the dude said and recognized the shape and cities.
