Are you playing these games via emulation? I've always wanted to go back to them but TBH I have no clue where to start (that's trustworthy).

Series like these, daily screenshots and such, are great!
What's your team composition?
Honestly, as much as I love going all Smogon and stuff in my teams, the composition is just whatever I feel like.
Right now I have a Gardevoir, a Pidegeotto, a Magmortar, Gyrados (The shiny at the lake of rage), a Sentret, and another one I can’t remember.
The teams that are whatever you feel like are often the most personal. I like it!
It definitely adds a degree of personilzation! When I’m going through the story it makes it feel much more meaningful to me to use Pokemon I like rather than whatever’s strongest. Plus, with the story I feel like any Pokemon can carry you to the finish line, there’s not much that’s difficult about the story.
Ah yes, the worst puzzle in Pokémon history. 5 generations of Kanto and it has not changed.
Have you tried Pokémon Unbound yet?
Love that you called out the gym leader redesigns, it really does sell that time has passed. Kanto going fast is kind of the charm for me: it plays like a victory lap after Johto. Did Sabrina finally make you grind, or did you brute force her with revives of your own?
I ended up brute forcing her with revives. I probably should have grinded but by that point I was so invested into the battle I didn’t want to give up.
I like the Kanto victory lap feel. I know it’d be a lot of work but I wish it was some they kept up going into Gen 3 and beyond
