>>56550521The hook is the refined gameplay and game design. It's the peak of the series in both of those with Gen 6 taking a massive slipslide in quality and the series never recovering.
I grew up with Gen 1 Pokemon so I don't need a "hook" to play the games. Especially not a new type with how fucking awful Fairy's been. I also don't particularly care for cross-gen evos, especially since the majority of them are bad or terrible.
