It's a really flawed game, but so much fun IMO.

The Digimon raising system is a bit of a chore, but over time, I've come to the view that it's genius. The focus on a single Digimon means you become incredibly attached to it, and when it dies, it really hits you. Few games create that kind of emotion. It's not all bad, however, as your Digimon lays an egg before it dies, and the Digimon that hatches from it inherits a portion of its parent's stats (not much, although it goes up as you raise more Digimon). All learned moves are also carried over.

As for learning about the more cryptic aspects of the game, this Let's Play was a massive help:

It was amazing at time, but playing it now, there are definitely things about it that annoy me (that mostly remain in the remakes). The level curve, some of the cooler new Pokemon not being available until Kanto, the time-based mechanics (cool novelties initially, but annoying after that wore off), the small size of Johto (and a cut down Kanto not *really* making up for it, even if it was one of gaming's great surprises at the time), etc.

I disagree that those make the games "bad" though.

3 is slower, and possibly even 5 too.
