Speedran this using pokemon from Home in order to get the version exclusives into my Violet save, but playing it quickly like that it struck me how effective the writing really is in this game. It's still astounding to me what they pulled off narratively, and how much it contrasts with the unacceptable visuals and performance. I know it'll never happen but I would love a true 3rd version (Azure? Chartreuse?) with combined elements from both versions and improved performance.
