The best version of Kanto to play overall. The games are full on remakes of the original Red and Blue/Green in the Gen 3 engine with all of the improvements that came with it. They’re mostly a 1:1 remake, but with some added content like the new typings introduced in Gen 2, the Sevii Islands, and more. Speaking of the Sevii Islands, everytime I play these games I always am taken out of the story when Bill comes and whisks you away after beating the 7th gym. Though it’s only a short segment, I’m just too used to how Gen 1s story plays out that I wish I could skip that initial Sevii Islands visit. Overall though, these are fantastic games that you should play if you want to experience Kanto.
