Real world exploration
The vast majority of Pokémon can be used in some form (the only once that are completely useless are because of being fucked over the the shitty stats they got from Lame Freak)
With few exceptions the gap between the good and bad Pokémon is relatively narrow
Real time battles that look better (also no shitty accuracy or evasion mechanic in PVP)
You can become best buddies with your Pokémon and even get toggleable ribbon
Following Pokémon doesn’t look retarded
Regular balance patches
Kanto gets some extra attention due to seniority, and Pikachu gets extra attention due to being the mascot, but all the currently released regions get their share of attention instead of just KANTOOO.
Considering what they did with Smeragle (which actually exists in PoGo) Kecleon will likely get a cool gimmick as a counterpart to its main series ability when its released.
No Dexit Stupidity
Actually fun
