-   -   3rd Gen Pokemon Firered/Leafgreen: One of the best pokemon games? (https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=141421)

I'd say it was the saving grace of the 3rd generation. Out of all the 3rd gen games I own, Ruby, Emerald, and Fire Red, Fire Red gets the most play time. I have no idea why you guys would not like these games, or say they need more features and what not... it's a REMAKE which means they can't change it up all that much because they're remaking the same games, you can't add a bunch of stuff to mess up that concept.

Also, I love Gold Silver and Crystal as much as the next guy, but why do we need a remake of them? What's wrong with the originals? I cannot figure out for the life of me why everyone and their mother wants a remake of Gold Silver and Crystal, those games had the worst level choices for wild Pokemon, the phone feature was terrible at it's time because you almost NEVER got a call for a battle, you could hardly ever find the evolutionary stones, they gave you too much freedom after you got Surf and could end up in the town with the 7th badge, thus crippling the levels that you face in the wild making it extremely tedious to level up and everything. For everything they did wrong in Gold Silver and Crystal why do people love the games so much? Whoop de do you get to go to Kanto, a watered down Kanto where everyone just about has level 30 Pokemon minus the Gym Leaders, who again aren't that much of a challenge. I'd have to say they made a lot of stupid decisions with Gold Silver and Crystal yet they made even more stupid ones in Ruby Sapphire and Emerald. I'd have to say (Fire) Red, (Leaf)Green, Blue, Yellow, Diamond and Pearl are the only games they got it right in.

So, again, can someone please explain to me why we need a remake of GSC? I love the games because of the retro feel, and that's about it.

I like it the best, R/S/E are OK games but i don't like their stories, mostly because I don't like the new Pokemon shows/or the actual Pokemon.

But no idea why it is my favorite but it is.

That's almost my opinion. I agree with the left half, but on the right, I think that RS & FRLG should be switched. I found FireRed to be a reasonably boring game, because not enough elements were added to it as compared to RBY. I find the RBY games to be more entertaining, because they at least have a retro feeling to them which makes it almost amusing to play them. I really liked the Metal generation in comparison to most other games because I feel that it was the most revolutionary set of games of them all, and it even connected to the previous games' storyline. Aside from graphics (and GSC was a huge step up from RBY... in terms of battle/back sprites, at least), double battles, running shoes, and possibly the addition of the second screen, I didn't find anything to be particularly exceptional about the other games as compared to GSC.

FireRed/LeafGreen aren't that great.

I like it best except there's no poocheyena and the beaches are not as good as Emerald's
