I love the Hoenn games I have all 3 of them. But I like fire red and Platinum better.

I agree, it was odd.... o.O

But not boring, I had Emerald though, never tried R/B, so maybe the other two were....?

I admit it. I don't think I'm a well liked person on this forum. Even when rep was still around. I got plenty of bad rep... >_>

I don't think everyone dislikes Hoenn. I just didn't like some of the Hoenn Pokemon. They look better in the Sinnoh games, though.

I don't get why people hate the Hoenn games. The new Pokémon are WAY cooler than Gen II or Gen IV's and everything is so charming! It's so much fun to play and the contests DON'T suck. More people should like Gen III. :(

I suppose they were the least favourite of my generations, mainly sprouting from the fact that while it used new features, it was content to stop after the E4. Someone's already said there's only the battle tower, Rayquaza (Or Groudon and Kyogre on Emerald), and the Regis. Of course, Emerals added the battle frontier, but it wasn't as fun as Sinnoh's frontier is.

I thought it was good and besides there wasn't anything to do after the E4 in GenI but people don't hate it and if you so it's different because it's the original than that's just pathetic,not that I didn't like Kanto but you can't only hate Hoenn for a reason that applies to another region.

Honestly, when i first played Ruby, i got lost so many times... The part of the game with all the diving was so confusing... I doubt anyone else had trouble with it but it was incredibly hard for me to navigate the waters. I did like the Hoenn games just not as much as the previous games.

Well, I'd say that the majority of people who dislike Hoenn just don't like the Pokemon. I think the region itself is okay, but the only thing that throws me off is, of course, the Pokemon.

I personally loved Hoenn. Plus, it was the first region I have ever played (minus the Pokemon Stadium 1&2 Regions). Plus I am a Team Magma fan :D

The pokemon were my favorite part about Hoenn. I liked about 90% of the pokemon in hoenn (as opposed to the ~10% of the Kanto pokemon and 85% of Johto pokemon that I liked) Plus, Pokemon ruby was the first video game I ever played and when I started I only knew about like 4 of the new pokemon. It was fun going through and seeing all the pokemon I never knew about :) I also thought the region was pretty cool. I do think there was just a little too much water, but I easily overlooked that because I was having too much fun to care about a few tentacool and wingull. At least the surfing speed was high enough to get you from Lillycove to Mossdeep in like a minute or two (even with the random encounters)

I liked it. Just not as much as Johto and Kanto. For me it's Sinnoh that was ****. Possibly because I've grown up.

I don't see how the Pokemon were boring, you had like Metagross some 4 legged metal guy who was ultra strong but you think that's more boring than a Seal called Seel

To hell with that statement! Not to mention that it's unfair to compare a basic Pokemon with a 3rd stage one.

Seel>Metagross.
