I still haven't finished my SoulSilver game. I remember playing Crystal, but Gen II seemed easier than the Johto remakes - not what you would expect. Farthest I got was to Clair, and then I restarted a while later.

Anyways, I don't think Metagross really needs the extra speed since it already has Agility and Bullet Punch. I guess it makes sense because it floats now, instead of looking like a big metal spider.
