Sinnoh was too hard for kids, so they tried to make later games easier.
Alder was written as a jobber, and you don't even have to fight him.
XY was designed to be steamrolled, because Masuda was afraid of kids leaving the series after Gen 4. This decision ironically just made Diantha less popular and magnified Cynthia even further.
Alola doesn't have an official Champion.
Leon's presence in Galar borders on obnoxious because the game keeps TELLING you that he's the best whenever he's on-screen. This has led to nothing but heated power level shit-flinging.
Geeta's team composition is just shit.
I'm actually amazed that Cynthia is still the best Champion. It shouldn't be that hard to just make a good boss with a balanced team, but they just fucking don't.
