Gen III Pokemon has the best turn-based JRPG combat system ever designed in gaming history.

RSE would have outsold Gen I if GSC hadn't already decimated consumer confidence in the brand, leaving Gen III to pick up the pieces

Water getting a physical weakness would have made it perfection.Poison? Flying? Hell, steel? Also swap ghost-dark special/physical.

why did you not say peak aesthetics? this means something

I'm playing johto right now. I just got pokeballs and I already have a rock type (geodude) and water type (poliwag). Favorite start to a pokemon game that I've played so far. Though, six zigzagoon to start is a pretty fun meme.

>>worst pokemon distibution
Doesn't it objectively have some of the best, with a huge variety of Pokemon available before the first gym?

>>12428737
Fuck, I haven't even beaten the first gym yet and I just got a grass type (bellsprout) and now a ghost type (gastly).

Are we really measuring things based on the first gym?

People say this is when the unoriginality of Pokémon began but this game was the first to actually do a lot of the stuff that became the formula for the proceeding generations (legendary myth story, new villain team, etc)

gen 3 games were horrible. if it was for fire red leaf green it would have killed the entire franchise with that gen. the only ones worse than emerald ruby and sapphire were diamond and pearl and black and white and x y. wait they're all shitty after crystal.

>>12427546
no. ruby sapphire and emerald are objectively the worst in the series tied with diamond pearl platinum. the only ones worse are the Lets Go games (which arent retro)

>>12428737
>>12428775
yeah i love kantomons too

>>12429097
Because?

>>12427476
lol the ugliest gen, better stories and music found elsewhere too. 'grats

>>12429097
1. Lets Go Pikachu is a remake of Yellow
2. it's really god damn good, along with remasters of the best music in the series

hate for that game isn't just unwarranted, it's absolute retardation

>>12429315
I agree it gets too much hate but it has shit I don't agree with. Like how catching Pokemon gave your team exp and some of the gym restrictions were stupid. The rival is dumb too. Otherwise it's a solid 8/10 Pokemon game.
