>Day/Night cycle forces you to play at weird times to catch your favorite mons
>Gym leaders are underleveled until the last one, causing a retarded difficuly spike
>No phisical/special split
>Evil team is literally just a rehash of the previous game, but less cool
>Elite 4 is 1/2 a rehash from the last game, except their mons are even weaker
>Half the game is postgame, locking useful TM's and Evolution stones behind the Pokémon League
>Still too little type and move diversity, leading to gyms and Elite 4 members having the wrong types/repeats
Unironically the low point of the franchise
