Crystal is great you'll have a blast

The ascetic is insanely nostalgic for me so I'm bias but I love the comfey laid back feel of Johoto, the fact that there's no villain team trying to capture what ever God Pokemon and going back to Kanto is really interesting.
It has problems like the biggest level curve in any Pokemom game, lack of rematches with gym leaders and the Elite 4 always being in the 40's and awful pokemon distribution but play them once

You walk faster in the older games, you'll stop noticing that don't have them.
