Along with RSE, FRLG are my favorite Pokémon games of them all. However, from my experience not very many people appear to share my love for the Kanto remakes.
The music was great, the sprites looked good, it introduced a brand new playable character in the form of Leaf and it had all the updated locations from the ultra popular RBY game, as well as new features. The Kanto region's detail and atmosphere was expanded upon. On top of that, it had, in my opinion, one of the most exciting post-games of any Pokémon game in the Sevii Islands. The Sevii Islands gave backstory to characters such as Lorelei, contained side stories, new characters and interesting and mysterous areas to explore. It really felt like an adventure. Finally, there was the option to challenge your rival as Champion again who would use a stronger team with Johto Pokémon.
Summing it up, FRLG has many good points in my eyes while I don't see any obvious flaws. So why are these games not as prominent in discussions or among the favorites of many fans? Is it because it is overshadowed by RBY and RSE? Do a lot of people love them and I just haven't noticed it? Does the game have any weak points I'm not seeing? Is there something else? Let's discuss :3
