>Overall power creep. Some argue it started with gen 4, but it became really apparent with mega stones, particularly in ORAS with Salamence and fug.
>Adding in mechanics that make life just generally easier, then taking them away later. See dexnav, hordes, restaurant, friend safari, PSS, etc.
>Fixing what isn't broken. See Festival plaza and cycling infinite loops.
>Adding in things that people have been asking for for YEARS, such as player customization or allowing pokemon to follow you, then making them siginificantly worse (for the former) or removing them entirely (For the latter)
>Pandering to gen 1 in a gen 7 game, effectively clogging encounter rates with pokes we've seen a thousand times before and spiking new pokes encounter rates in turn. See Pelipper/Raticate vs almost every gen 7 poke in SM.
