Which Gen. Would You Re-do?

[Lycaeus]

Hoenn. I disliked it quite a lot.

 

[Rhydderch]

I would redo Johto so that it deserved all the hype it has because there's little sense of challenge outside Whitney. The levels are too low, the Johto region itself was ridiculously short, and there's little sense of challenge.

I mean, Hoenn obviously needs some major upheaval, but Johto had its share of problems as well...

Johto, despite being my favourite region, does have its definite fair share of problems from a technical standpoint. The region was short and it had very little challenge. However, I'd only bump up the challenge in it. It may have been tiny, but it had much more personality than the other regions, in my mind. Johto could learn a thing or two about challenge from other regions, and other regions could learn a thing or two about personality from Johto (the only other regions that I felt like had terrific settings were Kanto and Orre, to be honest).

 

[Mew~]

Although this isn't the region I would edit, I agree with you that the music was... BAD. I felt like brass instruments were ripping through my ears the whole way.

Anyways, I would just re-do Sinnoh completely. It was the biggest disappointment of a game I've ever experianced. I hate most of the pokemon and the region was extremely boring.

The music was not bad!!! It had great music!!! The gym leader music was the best and the first town!

 

[TheAppleFreak]

Undoubtedly Hoenn. I hated that region. The Pokémon were stupid (sans epic ones like Swampert; I mean, WTF is a Nosepass?), the music was horrendous (music makes or breaks a game IMO), and, well, there were a lot of things I didn't like about it. The only redeeming qualities in my eyes about Hoenn were the Battle Tower cloning glitch and it's ability to trade with Colosseum without beating the 'leet Four.

I agree completely. D/P/Pt were great games.

 

[Micro SD]

Definitely Hoenn. The pokemon seemed kinda out of line compared to the other generations (and they still do). I also didn't like the storyline all that much. But the biggest thing about it, all the colors seemed waaaaay too faded.

 

[Spikey-Eared Pichu]

Wow, can't believe this topic actually got this much publicity. Anyways, since I started this topic, might as well deposit my two cents.

I'd re-do Hoenn, completely. I'd remove all the 3rd Generation Pokemon (san certain ones like Torchic's family, Milotic, Kyogre, Jirachi, Deoxys, and others) and would rip that Arceus-forsaken region to shreads and rebuild it in a tasteful fashion. I'd leave the difficuly alone, don't see any reason to change it since it was just as easy as any other Pokemon game I've ever played. Now, the evil teams, oh the evil teams, I'd erase them and replace them with either a sinister team bent on capturing Jirachi and using its wish-granting qualities to bring the world to its knees, and make Kyogre and Groundon dormant legends that you find later. The plot was...mediocre at best, and like I said, I'd erase it and redo it completely.

Ya know...This actually sounds like a good idea...[opens Windows 2007 and begins typing the storyline]...hahahah

 

[The Girl Once named Tracie]

Sinnoh. It grew on me after a while, but it's still pretty sad to look at. I just don't think the same effort when into it as the other ones, and after some work it could be a lot better (:

 

[.Gamer]

Sinnoh, not impressed by the new pokemon, and I think the story line was kinda bland.

 

[Kikaito plush]

either Shinoh or Hoenn, I will say Shinoh as the story is a bit boring than the other games...

 

[Tox]

Generation IV. The Evolutions for the older generations are horrible. They really messed it up there. Tangrowth, Rhyperior, Magnezone, Mamoswine, etc. They also have way too many legendaries. It's ridiculous.

 

[Pachireecko]

The advance generation.

*goes to find emerald cartridge*

 

[Serene Grace]

I see a lot of people agree with me. I would also redo Hoenn. It was my least favourite region because, in my opinion, it didn't really enstate Pokemon's origins. The Hoenn specific Pokemon weren't to my liking either, I didn't really like the designs of most of them (with some exceptions) and the elite 4's typing wasn't well thought out.

 

[cubonekid]

Hoenn isn't the best... but i think some characters in the second gen are pointless... The gyms were too easy, and i hope hg/ss are a bit harder!

 

[valmont667]

I would look at adding different long term goals. Pokemon Champion has been the main plot forever but it would be cool to choose from a few, like Pokemon Coordinator, Police, Team Rocket, Pokemon Breeder. I always like Gen 1 for locations and characters. I hate team galaxy. Rocket Forever!

 

[>Feelings<]

If you're talking in terms of the region themselves, both in the anime and in the games, then I wouldn't totally re-do any region.
But I would modify all four regions in whatever way I liked (actually six counting the Orange Islands and Sevii Islands and not counting the regions from the spin-offs).

This is because each of use have our own idea of perfect, and I just want my version to be perfectly loved by me!

 

[rikuboy]

Either Sinnoh or Hoenn,Sinnoh is due to the 3rd evolution to older generation like tangrowth,rhyperior,porygon-z and togekiss without the evolution it would be a much better sinnoh as for hoenn I'd change music and maps and remove some pokemon too like luvdisc and so on sinnoh is not that bad as if u played pkmn plat its pretty interesting inside distortion world

 

[batmon]

What I would change in all the gens, but one thing I would make in all of them is a difficulty selector:

Gen I: I would add mew in game so you don't have to do the glitch.

Gen II: I would Make the E4 much harder, and make it so that Victory Road has trainers in it.

Gen III: I would scrap about 60% of the pokemon, and make it so that there is more Gen I and II pokemon.

Gen IV: I would scrap all the new legendary pokemon, half the towns, the map design, the rivals design (he looks like a sailor), the starters, and the evil team design and game plot. And I would make it so that the starters are Dark, Psychic, and Fighting. Or at least Ice, Fighting, and Flying.
