After 20 hours of play time and the 8th medal I've made a picture of the game.
The game with the old versions og nothing in common except the proven gameplay.
Completely new map, new people, new story, new Pokemon.
As a longtime fan (20+ years old) I never regret buying.
I can say that the game is above all the above versions.
Most here have not played the very old versions! Therefore, I find attached a comparison.
Conclusion: Purchase !!!
