Ehhhh, they were both average games in my opinion, and I'm a huuuuuge pokemon fan. Can't forget that they were released on the third place console of the generation.
Innovations? Not quite. Just a different story line really. Everything was a double battle and catching other trainers' pokemon really wasn't "innovative", just new to the series.
Overall, they were ok games and they sold as such.
Currently playing: Civ 6
