Johto games are peak soulless made to satiate toddler's desire for style over substance. If by "SOVL" you mean shitty minigames and Kanto shitmons: the region, then sure

Kanto and Johto are tied as my favorite Pokemon regions, and HGSS has both of them. But for some reason, I prefer playing LGPE and FRLG over HGSS. I'm not sure why.

I think part of the reason is that I really hate how following Pokemon are mandatory in HGSS and cannot be deactivated. They get annoying fast. Also, the slow health-bar depleting also annoys me.

Furthermore, I guess that when playing HGSS I kinda miss Mega Evolutions (LGPE) and the Sevii Islands (FRLG).

It's strange, HGSS should be my favorite Pokemon game, but isn't. It's still in my Top 3 or Too 4 tho.

Currently playing SoulSilver and although I really enjoy this game, there is some stuff that I hate.
I am trying to get the Ice Beam TM for my Kingdra but of course I have to play Voltorb Flip. I know how to play but most of the time you HAVE to guess, which is just endless frustration. And when you lose there is always a chance that you go back to Level 1. I would have tolerated Voltorb Flip much better if it wasn't for the price of the TMs: TEN THOUSAND FUCKING COINS.
Also, after the 4th gym, regular trainers become underleveled, which kinda annoying but also useful because I had to catch and train two pokemon (Cubone and Horsea). On the other hand, I was always underleveled against gym leaders, which I really like and Jasmine was actually tough.
The Team Rocket story was so lame. You fight them before the 2nd and 7th gyms (barely anything in between) and then you go back to the Radio Tower, which has one of the most disappointing Team Leader fights I have ever seen (Archer).
And finally the Safari Zone. I really enjoy how you can change the areas and add some decoration to get new pokemon, really interesting idea. However having to wait 3 hours between phonecalls is a bit annoying (I really wanted Cubone but for some reason, you can only get it there). It would have been better if it was 3 real hours and not 3 ingame hours. But the absolute worst is that some mons require MONTHS to spawn. I heard that there are ways to make the internal clock glitch, but since I have another hacked DS I don't think I'll ever use that feature.
Hopefully its enormous postgame should make up for it.

there's one post in the entire thread, and the only decent point they had was that the health bars take a long time to drain.

It's not the best JRPG the franchise has offered (that would probably be a Gen 5 title, a Gen 7 title, or RSE depending on what you value in the campaign). It is probably the best world that Pokemon has ever had, it both feels very alive with things changing every day giving you reasons to constantly come back instead of just finishing it and being done, but also has a lot of hidden secrets in various places. Compare that to something like Platinum where the experience is better than DP, but DP is fucking miserable to begin with it only does so much, or something like RS where the campaign is solid and there's almost nothing to do after it (although the Regi puzzles are very nice and it's always a joy when they show up), or XY where I can't even say the campaign is solid and has the same nothing going on problem as RS. I think the best Pokemon games are ones where they excel in multiple areas rather than just one, as when something shits the bed (Emerald's endgame map design, GS's reboot being developed at the rate of a human child and the developers being paranoid of making Dragon Quest II, like half the shit going on in USUM) there's something that makes up for it (a varied post-game, an amazing world for GB hardware, little things that make the game and world feel better compared to SM). Every game can't be BW where almost every part of it is pretty solid but isn't the best at anything, but you can try to avoid the game having like one standout feature and nothing else, like Gen 6 online or the main Switch titles Raids.

I'm not German, and I actually like the following Pokemon feature, but my favorite game did it MUCH better (LGPE).

You played the game and know shitty stylus games worse than what you would find on newgrounds in 2005 to unlock time gated evolution items free in well-made games is nothing more than padding.
