@glennis75 TBTH Hoenn isn't my favorite region either. It's my fifth favorite region. I'll have to say my favorite region is Sinnoh. Don't know why though. Anyway, the rivers are very important, as you will see later.
That makes sense. But yeah, the water thing is not the only reason I hate Hoenn. Also the level curve sucks around the eighth gym, and then it requires hours upon hours of grinding just to have a chance against the e4.
@glennis75 I don't care if you are one of those people (As long as you are lowering the score of the game because it has a lot of water). But, I always liked the idea of a region needing a large river system. This is before running water so I think you know where they get their water from. Also, I like having natural dividers when making smaller territories from a bigger one
