When Gen 3 released, I hated it.>I hated that I couldn't transfer my Pokemon up from gold and silver >I hated the music with the vuvuzelas. >I hated the amount of water and the encounter rate for wingull and pelliper on several routes >Hated the fact that the new Pokemon in gen 3 felt much stronger and imbalanced compared to the old favorites of gen 1 and 2 >No physical special split and even though the concept hadn't even been introduced you could tell there was something wrong with the game >3 fucking water hmsAnd yet when I reflect as an adult...>Entire plot is about bonds with nature, which completely exemplifies Pokemon >Kino designs like Chimecho, Breloom, beloved starters, Absol, Salamence >Battle frontier is beloved and never returned >Emerald merges the plots of both games >Kino legendaries like Fug and the weather trio, Jirachi, Latias, Deoxys>Feels like the last generation where Pokemon was about pokémon and not about competitive cringe or waifu cringe>Double battles introduced >Best era of the tcg with creative concepts and artwork that has never been seen again >Last generation where it feels like the artwork has a soft and washed out pallet like the original gen 1 and 2Why is Gen 3 so kino? Why does it hold up so good in retrospect?
>>59435257Because it got fixed with ORAS. You hated it when it was released. Now that it’s fixed, you like it. Simple as.
>>59435276Never played oras
am i the only one who ranks the gen 3 starters the lowest of them all designwise?
>>59435276Hang yourself faggot, ORAS didn't fix shit. The only "fixed" thing here is you because only a dickless eunuch would say some objectively incorrect horseshit like this. You are the scum of the earth.
>>59435257mostly correct. but,>Kino designs like Chimecho,garbage, generic design, worst of the gen and a sign of things to come in later gens.>beloved starters, trash starters.>Absol, furry 'mon>Salamence shitter Dragonite and Rayquaza. Metagross is the pseudo you're thinking of.>Double battles introduced this is bad.
