>>53050766>Great for competitive pokemon, with an actual ranking system as well as bottle caps, TRs, and mints allowing all your bros to become properly trained with little effort]None of that matters because the meta is powercrept and unfun
>Brought back following PokemonButchered it
>Brought back jerk rivalsWho are poorly written anyway, so who cares?
>Brought back apricorn ballsAnd butchered it by turning it into a glorified vending/slot machine, completely missing the point. Apricorns were meant as a way to flesh out the pokeworld by introducing traditions like hand-crafted pokeballs. They also helped add to progession since they were unlocked after you completed a main objective. "BASEDlar"'s Cramom-whatchamacallit its literally the bargain bin version of Kurt from "Kanto's DLC"
>Added things to do online other than just battling and tradingOther games have side stuff you can do offline so I don't really see your point
>Added Brilliant Pokemon>Added square shinies>Has fun minigames like Rotom Rally>Has fun side quests like finding 100 Diglett and finding the footprints of the Swords of JusticeThese are ok, but none of this warrents calling "BASEDlar" the "best region"
>Is still being updated with new events to this day, over a year and a half after releaseSo? That's due to being on the switch that has nothing to do with "BASEDlar"
>Has 4 battle facilities that each operate different, basically a Battle FrontierOther Regions have an Actual Battle Fronter with far more to do,
>Useless bloat moves that have no reason to exist were finally cut (Barrier, Foresight, Constrict etc.)And removed important ones like Pursuit, Return, and Signal beam.
