Pokemon Z?

[Zac]

gen 4 < gen 6 < gen 5 < gen 1 < gen 2 < gen 3

there could be some bias here, but i really liked the tropical feeling gen 3 gave off. it was really cool.

I hear this a lot but was it really like tropical at all?  Most of the mainland is like dense wooded area and way more foresty than jungly, and the islands are mostly rocky )one of the coastal islands in an ice cave for that matter) and the water and  deep sea floor lacks the kind of diversity that you really think of when you picture tropics 

If it's going for tropical it really only has like.. tropius and sharpedo as complementing elements 
sure hoenn is an island but, especially in the original games, it does an awful job at conveying anything tropical
I'd only call it tropical in the most literal sense, that its based on an area that actual exists in tropics
