Pokemon Emerald is a game made in 2004. We are currently in 2023. How is it possible that Emerald still remains the best and most content rich Pokemon game almost 20 years later?

>Battle Tower
>Battle Factory
>Battle Dome
>Battle Arena
>Battle Pike
>Battle Pyramid
>Battle Palace
>Contests
>Secret Bases
>Trainer Hill
>Safari Zone
>Minigames (Slots, Roulette, Berry Blending)
>A beautiful region
>You can dive underwater
>Memorable locations like the Abandoned Ship, Sky Pillar, etc.

How does Emerald do it, guys?

      How is this bait? Emerald objectively has more content than any other Pokemon game.

              objectively correct statements aren't bait.

              How is this bait? Emerald has a bigger Battle Frontier than Platinum and HGSS. It has better side content like Secret Bases (actually well made Secret Bases) and Contests (actually well made Contests).

        Emerald is cool but I'm honestly sick of hoenn gays. B2W2 are objectively better. Everyone who hates Unova just hate the pokemon introduced in gen 5 but other than that the games are the best of the classic games.

      Unova is a shitty region and Hoenn is the most fun region to explore. That alone makes BW2 a slog and Emerald fun to play.

    HGSS is the most content rich. Emerald is defnitely a top 5 game though, possibly top 3.

    I literally quit pokemon over how disappointing these games were compared to gen 2 as a kid. it felt like a cheap knockoff after learning I couldn't go back to the previous region, which I expected to be able to do right up to beating the elite 4. sure having the entire series to compare it to makes that seem less bad, but it doesn't make it seem good.

    one of the shortest most tedious boring pokemon games ever made unless the battle tower tickles your fancy. also HGSS slaughters it content-wise, where you don't have to list the same content 7 times to make an argument

        it's the argument OP made, I'm only informing him that he's wrong. you can drag the goalposts around all you want after realizing he/you was wrong.

        but yes, HGSS is a significantly better game than em*rald

          What a bizarre argument.

              More isn't always better. These days Shin RGB is more fun to play than FRLG. FRLG has more content, sure, but most of what it was good for (fixing RGBY bugs) has been backported while its negatives remain. Similarly, a lot of the new content in ORAS sucked ass. Polished Crystal is kino as frick, but some of the original content weighs it down along with the game being balanced around you doing EVERY optional activity.

              Focused, shorter experiences can be better sometimes.

    Because you're likely a 26/27 yo nostalgiatard manchild, who thinks her childhood was am bestest, because she's filtered the drek from her memory banks to only leave the dopamine-soaked parts..
    Hope that helps you wake up from your delusion, but I doubt it somehow.

      I'm 27 and prefer gen 4 and 5 my first game was Firered followed by emerald and I still don't put gen 3 in my top 4 gens

      I'm 31 and I think Johto and Sinnoh were a bit weaker than Kanto and Hoenn. All four are good games, though. Unova, too, even if it could use touching up.
