Pokémon Revolution vs Emerald Cross - eviltoast

Does anyone have opinions on Revelation vs Emerald Cross? Both are vanilla+ experiences of Pokémon Emerald for the GBA. They both look very good but I would like to enjoy the one that that is the better vanilla+ experience.

For comparison, I’m nearing beating the Pokemon league in Polished Crystal and absolutely love the game.
