Why were they the best games?

because they were the best
Tons and tons of shit to do. It was ridiculous.

There ever was?

Because you touch yourself at night.
Lots of options. Not forcing you into a lot of shit.
Pokéathlon is a huge side competition, but you can completely ignore it without someone forcing you to go see it. Same with the Bug-Catching Competition and the new Safari Zone.
Only annoying case of being forced into something is the Ho-Oh/Lugia shit.
Things like GB sounds are very, very welcome.
Following Pokémon makes it more immersive.
Some areas in Kanto were fixed, while still keeping places with actual reasons to be empty like Cinnabar.
Only legitimate flaws I see with it are the level curve and Pokémon distribution. Both of which were slightly improved in areas, but still left a lot to be desired.

Because people are nostalgia blinded
Full of stuff to do I guess.
It's a huge grind fest though

Don't kid yourself, it was short as fuck.
And following Pokémon removes immersion because it makes pokemon your basic pet not to mention they have reused text everywhere.
Also I honestly don't believe there are people who defend that mess of a zone, even the ORAS version was a better version because it was an actual Safari as opposed to eight boxes.

It's as long as every other non-battling side game, plus nets you actual rewards.
>And following Pokémon removes immersion because it makes pokemon your basic pet not to mention they have reused text everywhere.
I can't tell if you're trolling here. You make it sound like Pokémon are just tools, edgelord.

It was a neat idea as opposed to turning the Safari Zone into a route.

But they weren't. HG/SS hardly did anything to fix the originals' problems.

Literally the only good thing about this awful gen is the Battle Frontier.
Fuck off Hoennshitter.

Because 3D models and mega evolutions were a mistake
