    • How anybody can hate the generation that gave us Mudkipz is appalling

    But Seriously, i dont get it. Hoenn was a great region, with great pokemon (Salamence, Metagross, Absol, Blaziken, Cacturne, Rayquaza, Jirachi, Aggron, need i say more?) Team Magma and Team Aqua werent total jokes like Team Rocket, the list goes on and on.

    • I guess the sudden change of design really caused the disapproval of some of the older crowd like 4th and 5th gen. since the original designer stopped at 2nd gen.

    I thought it was alright, liked a couple of the pokemon like milotic and salamence. The way they improved the pc(with the backgrounds and renaming) was also pretty neat.

    I think the Hoenn Reigion had some of the best Pokemon; New moves, Natures, Abilities, Type matches... It was a great change! Sure, it missed out the past Pokemon (which was a bit of a let down) but, it seemed like a good stepping stone into the 4th Gen'. Although, it would have been better if the features (such as the real-time clock and night system) were in Hoenn as they would have done well. I just hope that a remake comes to solve this!

    • Well...Hoen introduced some of my favorites; Grovyle, Combuskin, Blaziken, Swellow, Shiftry, Flygon, and some others...However it also introduced Salamence...I despise Salamence (I know that this seems a bit childish/fanboyish/ignorant, but I'm being honest about how I feel about it) I always felt like Salamence overshadowed Dragonite. I mean personally when I look at the too I think Gamefreak screwed up distributing the stats with the two. Dragonite (IMO) seems like it would be faster than Salamence, while Salamence (IMO) seems like it would be more bulky than Dragonite

    Also I do kind of hate the fact that Rayquaza learns Extremespeed, I kind of enjoyed the fact that Arcanine had a signature attack, but Gamefreak decided to give it to some others >_>

    And for the majority of the other Hoen I don't really have an opinion on them...they're just too forgettable...But I don't really hate Hoen Pokemon

    I actually enjoyed the Hoenn Pokémon. Sure, there were a few useless pieces of junk (no offense, Zigzagoon), but there were also some pretty convienient ones out there.

    Zigzagoon was awesome. Catch 5 Zigzagoons, put them in your party, walk around in the grass for a while, and you have a Rare Candy and some Hyper Potions.

    • Hoenn was my all-time favorite. Looking at all the newer games (Black and White) They all look ugly compared to Hoenn. Grovyle is the coolest looking in my opinion.

    I think Hoenn pokemon were a little too complex overall, however there were simpler ones (Zigzagoon, Poochyena, Spheal etc.)

    But, this does make for some of the most interesting pokemon around...

    I also dislike Salamence for overshadowing Dragonite, although I love all the others.

    I think by making Sinnoh so simple, Hoenn was complimented better, and more people will/have come to appreciate Hoenn pokemon

    • It's not that the pokemon are the things people hated about R/S/E, i for one liked the pokemon. But instead it was the region itself i absolutely hated Hoenn (except Fortree that was the only part i liked) there was just too much water and that was coming from some one who absolutely loves water types

    • I my self hated Gen 3 pokemon and found Gen 4 to make up for that upset,But many do not know each generation of pokemon were made by different people so that is why they look weirder each time.

    Just like how i hate Gen 5 pokemon except the legendary.

    Wait.. I don't get it. Who hates Hoenn pokemon? Not me at least. Many of my favourite pokemon are from Heonn. eg. Gardevoir, Sceptile.
    According to me, Sinnoh was the most disappointing one.

    • I can honestly say I like Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald better than Diamond/Pearl/Platinum.
    The Pokemon in Hoenn were so much more appealing than Sinnoh's.

    • I personally hold nothing against the Advanced generation Pokemon.
    But, IMO, the Pokemon in R/S/E, although were refreshing and creative, lost some of the charm the GBC generation once had. Can't really explain.

    Exactly my point.
    The only things I liked were some of the Pokemon, Salamence, Absol, Flygon and teh most awsome Mudkipz
