>>41154727XY. B2W2 and HGSS were the best games in the series, which is why XY was a kick in the nuts. I agree with others that XY could have been fixed, it didn't reek of a lazily made game, it felt rushed and incomplete, so many things in the game point to them not having enough time to do everything they wanted. A Z version or SM could have fixed it, but they skipped the first and double down on the slashed and simplified content in the later. Do you remember everything leading up to Grant in XY? How long all the routes were? It was pretty great. Hell even up until Clemont it still wasn't disappointing aside from the Lucario wank. To me at the time it felt like if dev hadn't been bungled, the whole region could have been like that. I have no way of knowing if that could have happened for real now, but the idea was at least with me.
