Gen 1 & 2 were plain broken; gen 3 and 4 took the games' core and made it much more interesting and compelling. STAB, Physical/Special Split, Abilities and many more. About the 'mons themselves, I think you let nostalgia cloud your judgement a bit. Seriously. Many gen 1 & 2 Pokemon are trash; Jynx? Exeggutor? Unknown? Parasect? Hypno? Foretress? The only gen's Pokemon I didn't care for were 4th ones. Too many legendaries (crappy ones, too) and too many old evolutions. Don't get me started on Pokemon like Burmy :-/ |
Umm, STAB was there since gen 1.
And Gen 1 and 2 > 3 and 4.
