im late to this but i cant believe i had to see emerald slander in 2024. emerald is probably the best character in adventures tbh, hes peak. his backstory is interesting and, while kusaka is not what id call a respectful writer, we do get to see how having a disability made him be ostracized and lead him to be closed off to people and pokemon. if anything i wish pokespe had inbetween chapters to show him becoming friends with ruby and sapphire.
the big showdown is the weakest part of the arc imo but i do think its still pretty thematic, with his internal desire to finally have friends
i like to say that emerald is wally if wally was a good character. if his disability actually mattered, if he had a more cohesive plotline etc
anyway hgss and oras are so dogshit bad man. oras is personal but hgss is so ????????? WHAT are you cooking. no one is likeable, everyone annoys me, the plot is dumb as fuck AND it messed up the timeline.
