>>518310921. You're being disingenuous to imply XY were not easier than DP, yes both games have a simple JRPG combat system but so long as you are not insanely overleveled, Diamond and Pearl are more challenging than X and Y.
2. Beauty isn't really a motif, I think all the games attempt to be visually pleasing and colorful.
3. I said it was my opinion, I think the chibis in 3D look bad and I remember the flower route in XY looking worse than Floaroma.
4. DPs is lame but the villain has at least some semblence of a plan/goal, also the legends are cooler and the fight against Cyrus is harder than Lysandre.
