>>34989018None of what you mentioned is a legitimate critique.
>>new MegasIcing on the cake.
>>hard modeUnnecessary in the long run.
>>less railroadingThey're just as linear as the previous ones.
>>fucking Battle Frontier or PWT backGimmick that would be out of place in this context.
>>ability to change a Pokemon's Hidden Power typeWowee you came up with this all by yourself? This is called nit-picking.
>>balance changesVague.
