>>45111098> Devs used the hardware to add overworld encounters instead of random encountersWas done better in other games for the same console AND in the previous game of the previous franchise.
||random encounters are still there||
> Devs use the hardware to bring in raid battlesDid they? Increasing the size of a model in a featureless hell? Didn't use much of the hardware then.
> Don't have to hold B to run anymoreThis just comes with 3D movement.
> I don't have to press A in front of water to travel on it anymoreYou still need to press the bike button.
> Annoying evolution methods changedAnd worse ones were introduced.
> Lets you catch 600+ Pokemon in the game itself instead of forcing you to buy multiple gamesOnly if you buy DLC.
> Don't have to tediously walk to the PC just to swap out Pokemonlol, casualization is a good thing.
> Don't have to rebreed an entire Pokemon just to get Egg Moves on my old PokemonThis one is good.
> I can just spam vitamins to EV train Pokemon instead of having to tediously grind on wild PokemonXY already fixed this problem, so this is more a sidegrade than an upgrade.
> You can extremely easily get Pokemon to lv100 just by using candiesAt the expense of making the game too easy. Other games ||including Pokemon fanhacks|| have removed grinding without sacrificing in-game challenge.
> I can finally use transferred Pokemon in competitiveYou could do that in literally every other game? I think I'm misunderstanding your point here.
> Adds new Dynamax animations for old PokemonMost still just reuse animations.
> DLC has the best map design in the series so far and is fun to exploreAbsolutely wrong. Jesus Christ, did you not play through the other games in the series? This is NOT the best map design Gamefreak has to offer.
> DLC adds Restricted Sparring so I have cool things to do with my Pokemon in-gameMore stuff you need to buy DLC for, and it's still not as much as you used to get in previous third versions.
