>Glitchy mess
>Pokemon balance is shit
>Many pokemon are broken, like psychic types.
>Trainer AI is awful they do the stupidest shit and even the elite four who have "good" AI will spam moves like barrier because the type of the move is psychic and you have poison type, so use "super effective move" when it does 0 damage
>Only one ghost type line, meant to counter psychic pokemon but were weak to them due to being part poison and they fucked it up by making ghost moves do jack shit on psychic types
>No phy/special split, this is fine if done correctly, but why make fire punch special move and give it to physical pokemon like Hitmonchan? it's a complete waste, why make pokemon of special types be good at physical attacks when they have shit options for physical attacks?
>Bad teams, Bruno has two onix, when he could easily have poliwrath or primeape and no it didn't make him harder because Onix base stats are of that of a caterpie so they act as death fodder
>Awful move pools, even the 8th gym leader finds a way to keep scratch, poison sting, but never uses good moves like earthquake.
>RB are well known for being buggy as shit, but the original green version was ten times worse
Fastforward to BDSP
>Clearly rushed game that needs to download the rest of itself, buggy as hell, affection breaks the game, EXP share breaks the game, for owning SWSH you can get some mythicals to break the game with at the start.
Why people put up with this?
