I'm all for games being plot-based, as long as the plot is interesting. With Pokemon, the later games seem to focus more on narrative, but don't do much to make things interesting. You're given the bare minimum regarding these characters and who they are, and their personalities aren't all that special, either.
That said, even though Pokemon SM are some of my least favorite Pokemon games and I dislike the plot, I don't hate them. People here are too negative about the series as a whole.
