-Accessibility
-Huge variation in play styles
-Great pacing (The amount of grinding needed to complete the game isnt excessive)
-Great exploration
-100% (Pokdex completion) is a fulfilling and satisfying task
-PVP and trading was like THE social thing to do for 9-12 year olds at the turn of the millennium
-PVP really requires you to outsmart your opponent and make careful decisions

Maybe their GBA/DS remakes were. But the originals, especially R/B/Y, were unbalanced messes with tons of glitches and bad coding.

Take your creepy trophy collection elsewhere.

You cant ask for anything else of a solid RPG. Reasonable goals plus immersive atmosphere. Done.

Balanced gameplay that isn't completely dominated by one type of character that outclassed all of the others?

A game that isn't glitchy as fuck due to really sloppy and shitty coding?

Wrap stops the opponent from doing anything, if you are faster they dont get turns anymore.

Super broken for players and super annoying if the AI uses it, it is a terrible move design for a 1v1 battle.
