I never once bought the old 3rd versions, and never felt I was missing anything from them. I mean, what did  Crystal, Platinum, Ultra, really add to the games? A new legendary, and a couple new pokes. Right?

And even if I was so inclined to get the 3rd version, I could just sell my original version for 80% of the full price, because that's how much Nintendo and Poke'mon games hold their value. Poke'mon Black for example still goes for $33 CIB! Diamond goes for $24. SoulsSilver goes for $48! That's more than the game friggin launched at! Source: pricecharting.com

3rd versions include new gameplay features, remixed plots, more pokemon, new characters, new areas, new modes, QOL improvements

This really isnt all that different.

I looked over most of the improvements for these games. It really looks like just a bunch of minor improvements.
