>>53137696hard agree on the moveset thing and kind of wish this was exponentially expanded so that people had legitimate reasons to attempt using mid and base evos. As for what I like personally- there’s something about the trainer encounters I just love. Like this little tiny detail- tend on tens of tiny micro-songs that 90% of people won’t ever listen to- heralding the start of each different type of battle. Their removal in gen 7 immediately stuck out to me hard and going back a few Gens to only hear a few variations was kinda jarring, but at least they were still THERE before. The fact that they not only got rid of these themes after SM but also something like 2/3 of every fucking trainer class around (especially in gen 9) is honestly a huge reason as to why I can’t see any soul in these games anymore. There’s so little to love when even minor details from years ago that are basically series staples by now can’t even be REUSED or some shit, and are instead just scrapped altogether.
