People often say that this series doesn't need to focus too much on the singleplayer experience because the point of modern Pokemon is just getting to the endgame multiplayer stuff, right? But when EXACTLY did this series drop all its need for single player content and just do multiplayer? Didn't we used to have both in the past? Gen 5 had plenty of single player content while still also having good multiplayer content, as an example, and previous gens were all about the single player since Multiplayer was so limited due to no online.
It feels like saying the game is mainly for multiplayer is just an excuse to justify all the cut single player content, am I off base?
