First of all I value postgame in PKMN games a lot, therefore gen 3 or emerald to be precise is a revelation. The main game has the best pacing in any PKMN game full stop. The new PKMN feel new and refreshing, abilities feel like they change the way we approached these games, the mapping of the hoen region is phenomenal, this game has a great art direction and looks still gorgeous. It has an amazing lineup for the starters as well as many routes early on with new exciting PKMN, the mistreated Fighting type finally gets love, all through a positive experience. And I not even touched upon the postgame , yes the Battle Frontier debuted in this game and its fantastic many hours to play with fun variations on the PKMN formula, personal favourite being the factory. I really like to use Swampert, Guardevoir and Swellow. Might be my favourite entry.
