People can hit this with the "objectively bad" argument all they want but Sun & Moon will never have a professor who can't remember his own grandson's name
It's sad that we never have had another puzzle box region design like Kanto, at least not to the same extent. Giving a fresh water to the gate officer to access Saffron was actually such a satisfying "puzzle." Even just on a dialogue level, the sheer absurdity of it was just so charming.
It's sad that the oversaturation of Gen 1 elements in the modern games (not to mention the era of insufferable genwunners) have soured so many people on Gen 1, to the point where people won't even acknowledge that there are things that Red and Blue did quite well, positive qualities that have been lost in the newer titles. Yes, these games are massively flawed, but you go on Reddit and all you see is people bashing them or at the very least dismissing them entirely, and that's a real shame.
as a millenial who was in the core audience of the pokémon craze in the late 90s, it confuses me to no end that gen 1 is only 3.5 avg on here and actually one of the worst rated gen of all??? wth
