Why is Legends so beloved despite being as linear and cutscene heavy as the newer entries, except without the battle depth or any online multiplayer whatsoever? Half of the game is cutscenes and trainer battles are very scarce so there's no reason to make a team and unlocking the next area is behind boring tasks like watch shinx fart 5 times.
I think people only really like the real-time ball throwing and the illusion of the game being something more than it is.
