I'll never understand why people want the Orange Islands to have its own game. Looking back on it, not only would the selection of Pokemon be pretty limited, some of the challenges the Orange Crew gives you are pretty unfair towards some trainers.
Take Danny's challenge for example; You need an Ice-type move or an Ice-type Pokemon to freeze geyser water, and considering there are spread out tropical islands, good luck with that. You also either need a Pokemon that can cut said ice or melt it into bobsled to race down a mountain. I've never ridden in one before, so I don't know how difficult it could be.
And then there's Cissy, the first of the crew that Ash ran into. You absolutely need a water-type to challenge her. She doesn't recommend you have one, she pretty much demands it. Yeah, you could say that most trainers would probably have one on their team, but then every team is different. Not every trainer's gonna want a Water-Type on their squad, after all.
The other three are fair, Rudy'll just put you through some kind of test of skill, while Luana double battles you and Drake just battle you. So with all of that, are we sure Drake remained undefeated because he was too tough? Or was it just the lack of challenges he received due to the other of the Orange Crews' methods?
Course, I could be wrong. Maybe Cissy can be reasoned with or maybe Danny has multiple challenges you can go through. I wouldn't know.
