>In Gold and Silver you can catch all two box legendaries in the same game>In Emerald you can catch all three box legendaries in the same game>In Platinum you can catch all three box legendaries in the same game>In HGSS you can catch all two box legendaries in the same game>In BW2 you can ca- no you can't.>In USUM you can ca- no you can't.
>>59692324They saw all the hate HGSS got and wanted to avoids it mistakes so they ended letting the player have all the box legends
>>59692326What the fuck are you talking about? HGSS are still the (Heart) gold standard for remakes. The only time they get badmouthed is over issues present in GSC like the wonky level curve or how half of the Johto gym leaders don't use Gen II mon
>>59692410> how half of the Johto gym leaders don't use Gen II monAnd that is a also retroactive judgment, weaker than the criticism of the level curve. Just because other generations do it doesn't mean Johto had to, especially since it was only the second generation when it came out. The same thing happens with Zelda II, it gets treated as the black sheep because subsequent games reused the formula of the first, but when it was released, it represented 50% of the series. It's valid to criticize it if you feel it should have been different, but that is more arbitrary than criticizing the level curve, which forces you to grind in tall grass when the game prioritizes trainer battles. You can still criticize specifically HGSS for not "fixing" it, but one can reply they wanted to be faithful, and you can agree whether that's good or bad
>>59692324>Gold/Silver were part of based gen 2 before GF started its featuring-cutting, one legend only, remake-making money grubbing in gen 3 onwards>Emerald/Platnum were third version copypastes so they had to throw both box legends in there along with BF to tempt people to buy them>HGSS was just copying G/S with both box legends but also threw in anything you couldnt get in DPPt (eg gen 3 stuff) so people could complete their national dexes>BW2 is a sequel not a third version so they are part 2 plus they swap the legends with the colors so any black version loyalists can get the other legendary, same with white version>USUM is the start of the third version versioning bullshit that crept into the SWSH DLC with the you can only choose one legendary garbage
>>59692410he's breaking balls, anon. jesus
>>59692324You can 'get' both box legendins in Ultra moon. You just don't catch them. You get a free Nebby you can evolve into either using the reverse world portal
>>59692326>They saw all the hate HGSS gotLmao that's how I can tell you're a zoomer who wasn't around when HGSS got released. Everybody who bought the games back in gen 4 loved them and all the new features that were introduced.
>>59692465>you can evolve into either using the reverse world portalShow gameplay footage of a Cosmoem in Sun evolving into Lunaala via this method, please
>>59692421>the level curve, which forces you to grind in tall grass when the game prioritizes trainer battles.not even, you're meant to tackle the level spikes head on and overcome them with strategy, like in any decent jrpg everyou really do not need to grind in hgssbut yeah everything else you said is 100% true
