I agree it seems that many fans who criticized Generation 3 seemed to be disappointed with Gen 3's lack of connection with Gen 1&2. Originally I myself at that age had my hopes of battling Red again crushed by R/S limitations to the game. But after a few years I began to respect and appreciate the Hoenn region despite the games lack of continuity. Gen 3 may have been the Pokemon franchise gaming revolution either being a good or a bad thing nonetheless it evolved the game from something more than just elemental rock paper scissors, in it's own way the gen truly captured the concept of Pokemon.
If you think about it the Hoenn region may have been the Darwin Galapagos islands of Pokemon, revealing how species and types are deviated and integrated by Hoenn's vast multiple environments (Prof Birch's field mind you). Ultimately the Hoenn region built the design for gen 3 pokemon for not only they were exotic but also considerably smaller than previous Pokemon generations. Aside from my wall of text the story was well built fully integrating both villains and cover art Pokemon into a plot, rivaling environmental extremist who both aim for expanding Pokemon habitats by acts of terrorism, by awakening legendary pokemon almost destroying the world in the process. Also don't get me started on how Emerald's Battle Frontier broken the somewhat hellish trial of after story EXP grinding and PokeDex entries. Generation IV on the other hand did well to closely follow Gen 3 design so well as the author stated it's more like a Pokemon Generation III+ which might explain some fans disdain with D/P/Pt.
