The overworld sprites are un-spriteable!

What I don't like? There are no wild starters! I can understand no wild Kanto or Johto, but there aren't wild ones from Hoenn or Sinnoh? You can't even GET the Gen. IV starters in this game!
Well I wasn't necessarily aiming for challenge. It's just that I think the pokethlon gives a much more entertaining hands-on experience than contests. I haven't played it though, so my opinion isn't really valid, it's just based on videos. The Pokethlon reminds me a whole lot of the Pokemon Stadium mini-games and I really enjoyed those.
I don't disagree that they're most likely all easy, but you could always just stick a magikarp in a power competition.
The only thing I didn't like about the original G/S, and still doesn't appear to have been changed in HG/SS, is that the levels of Pokemon in the Kanto gyms are so average.

You know, I was playing a bit of SS and reading this thread until a thought came up in my mind about Pidgey being in Johto.
The "common bird" of Johto, HootHoot, is only availible at night correct? In all the other regions, the "common birds" were obtainable at all times of the day. Perhaps Pidgey was used to compensate for HootHoot being availible only at night. Of course, this is just a wild theory I'm putting out here so I could be wrong.
I'm only bringing this up because a lot of people dislike that Pidgey and Rattata are in Johto. (Which is definitely a valid critisism, especially with Rattata. I'm not excusing this, just trying to see a reason for it.)
...
There's no physical obstruction that prevents Pidgeys and Rattatas to migrate to Johto from Kanto...unlike Sinnoh and Hoenn.
I think that is a logical reason enough.
I've often wondered about the criticism against Kanto Pokemon in Johto. What I don't get is the Johto pokemon not being in Johto. Though I suppose now, with the improvements HGSS made, that the Elite Four isn't really close to end of the game. It's more like a Mt. Coronet. It divides the game in half. Unlike the originals where Kanto was kinda just thrown in.
Just because they're in the pokedex listed from 152 to 251 doesn't mean they should be region locked to Johto.
Migration, preference, etc. Maybe those pokemon liked Kanto better?
I'm not saying they should be region locked, it'd just have been nice to have seen Sneasel in Johto again. It can be in Kanto all it wants, same as the others. But if it's going to be in Kanto and is a gen ii pokemon, it should be in Johto somewhere.

Mt. Silver is in Johto.
