What I will give the...

I'm not opposed at all to this being a Pokemon thing now either.

What I think is fantastic about Sapphire to Emerald and Ruby, for that matter, is that...

Between the vanilla versions of the game and the expanded version, I think Emerald does have a lot more to give.

But Sapphire and Ruby still hold up extremely well as their own games, despite Emerald existing, in my opinion.

Because Omega Hot Take, the Battle Frontier in Emerald, is worse than the Platinum and HeartGold one, and they got rid of the two factories that absolutely had to go.
