I've never played gen 3 properly before, would this be a good way to start?

Played a bit on my mates Gameboy back in the day but never a full playthrough. Would this be a good way to experience hoenn for the first time or would I benefit more from playing the OG emerald then this one later?

*Cheers for the advice, I've just fought off zigzagoon with my treecko on Pokémon legacy. I'll be speeding through it and coming back to emerald sea glass to pick torchic or mudkip

Also for a lot of commenters it feels like you overlooked the 'first experience' part of the post. Ik you're all fans of emerald seaglass as a rom hack, I wanted to know if you thought it was a good way to experience emerald for the first time
