at least those games dont remake two versions of the same game into two "new" versions of the same game

i used to hate the two version thing but it's really just a social piece of the game, something that's really started to come out in the past two generations or so. it was tedious to have to trade with someone in gen 1 to get them all but if anything bartering with people has become part of the game these days that's pretty standard and easy to do.

what about street fighter?
completely inexcusable and there's no reason to do anything but wait for the latest release of each game

sapphire is crap tier
was this gen really not that good?
emerald was the best one of that gen.
I did like Sapphire, but I blazed through it and and beat it over the course of 2 or 3 days.

And yeah, Emerald was such a vast improvement.

It was alright. It's the gen that introduced Pokemon abilities so that was cool.

It's definitely not bad. I just like Gold/Silver, X/Y, Black/White better and the original is the original soooo

Again I cannot emphasize enough how much diamond/pearl sucked

Emerald has:
both Kyogre and Groudon obtainable
two evil teams conflicting with each other
a few features from FRLG like wireless connectivity
battle frontier
good protagonist outfit changes
better double battles
move tutors
some major breeding changes

and on a worse note:
Champion Steven and Gym Leader Wallace replaced with Champion Wallace and Gym Leader Juan
inability to trade with other regions (Kanto/Orre/Box) until after earning National Dex

I wasn't especially into Emerald. It was released really late in gen3 and by the time it released I had already finished collecting all 383 obtainable pokemon (no Mew, Celebi, or Deoxys). I didn't like most of its battle frontier facilities and never bothered reaching any of the Brains.

My preference of pokemon regions is:
Unova > Kalos ~= Hoenn > Kanto > Johto > Sinnoh

Though people often complain about Hoenn's overabundance of water routes, it excels in a lot of other ways. I like a lot of its newly introduced pokemon. It had a great variety of areas, ranging from an abandoned ship, underwater, a treehouse town, a desert, and an ashy volcano. Double battles were a great addition. Contests are neat. Secret bases are neat. There's quite a bit more to do in general than in previous regions. It's pretty well balanced and varied in terms of the types of wild pokemon you can find (even early in the game, you have more than just normals and bugs) and trainers you face.

What great changes did diamond/pearl bring?

The only big thing I'd say they have is the new way physical/special split works. And Wi-Fi, I guess.

Sinnoh itself is slow and dull. Mud and snow is bad. Both contests and secret bases were made worse than in gen3. Some special new features like pokeball stickers and poketch were worthless and poorly-executed. There's too much cave. It has awful type balance.

At least it has the post-game island, but even that doesn't have nearly as much to do pre-Platinum.
