It has to do with when Pokemon was still considered a fad on the decline. RSE was disliked for years by the fanbase. All the water routes, the fact you couldn't trade with older games, the new art style, and ditching the entire narrative the first two gens created for a reboot felt like a massive step backwards for the series. Granted these days people can look past most of that because every generation is a semi-reboot, transferring Pokemon hasn't been a problem since the change in RSE, and way worse Pokemon designs have been made since those games. The region itself still gets a mixed response but it's usually more positive now vs the negativity back then. All of those years of hearing their favorite games were the "downfall of the series" combined with the love/hate nature of the Hoenn region created an extremely defensive fanbase.
