        And how they handled that is my issue. Too many Gen 2 Pokemon were locked behind reaching Kanto. Johto should have been heavier on giving us the new faces, Kanto the old.

        I love that it was included, but it felt like they just kinda went “Hey, we can do that!” and that was the end of really thinking about it. There’s a lot of balancing that could have been done.

        Thankfully we have HG/SS and Crystal Legacy, which both did better jobs.

          There are so many Crystal improvement ROM hacks that it’s very difficult to decide which one to play. I hear Polished Crystal is really good as well.

        Still probably the best surprise a game has ever given me.

        Oh, you finished the game? Nope! entirely refreshed revisit to the previous game!
