Most of gen 1's problems were purely technical so it inherently improves the experience greatly. It's still a bland story, the route encounter tables are still bad, and the game even prohibits you from evolving pokemon like Golbat and Scyther until after you beat it. It's the remake with the best justification for existing, but it's middle of the road in terms of quality of pokemon games.

I played this with my older brother - he played guitar, I sang. I remember a handful of songs, like "Blitzkrieg Bop" and "Wanted Dead or Alive", but the one that stuck in my head most was "Gimme Shelter" by The Rolling Stones. I sang that one time and got to the part where it says "r*pe, murder, it's just a shot away" and my entire family laughed at me for some reason?? because I didn't know what it meant and I was like 5 or 6 years old
