Never understood this "Kanto in gen 2 was bad" meme. I think it's the best region in the franchise.

For example?

Level curve was shit, and the fact that strongest wild Pokemon were Mt. Silver's 50 something things, didn't help.
Cerulean Cave had things in 40s (except for Mewtwo of course), a DROP from RBYFRLG.
The level scaling in Gen 2 Kanto was bologna, nobody had over leveled Pokémon. To the point that Blue, the toughest gym leader in Kanto, has only 8 or less levels on Lance.

I'd say HGSS Kanto was amazing, but GSC Kanto is merely adequate.
Especially since HGSS Kanto has higher levels, and brought back the places that were removed.

Stop this meme

Aside from Red, it's perfectly possible to beat every other trainer in the game without grinding.
>>27216123
Half of those statements arent even true

>Open world
Name a Pokémon game without open world
>No forced story or dialogue to interrupt the gameplay
There is pretty much no story at all.
>Tons of areas with assloads of Pokémon
You mean all those Pokémon you could get back in Johto ? Or did you mean actual Gen II mons you could only get gorssly underleveled in the fucking postgame?
>Gyms can be taken in almost any order
Can't argue with that. But you could do this in most older Pokémon games. But it only looks viable in GSC Kanto, because everything is a pushover.
>Grossly overleveled trainers with 8/10 team composition
Overleveled? Trainers? You mean, like, Blue and Red?
>Dat Blue
What.
>Dat revisited E4
Dat revisited E4 which is completely identical to the first run of E4 ?
>Dat Mt. Silver
Dat mediocre cave enforcing flash on you to gimp your moveset vs Red, with no trainers and only low level/shit Pokémon ? Man, every single Victory Road is better.
I have a strong feeling your first Pokémon game was B/W and you just played HGSS for the first time and you think that the postgames of HGSS and GSC are identical.
