>>46392362>rivals are awful and annoying>new pokemon for the most part are bland and there aren't even many of them>pacing after the 2nd gym goes to shit>the elite 4 is terrible>Megas are a stupid gimmick and should have never been made>first gen to start the trend of gimmicksAlso difficulty is a valid criticism. Pokemon is already easy why did they have to make it even easier? Gen 6 is when the writing on the wall of the franchise going to shit became crystal clear, and it honestly makes me sick that there's an entire group of 16-20 year olds nostalgic for it.
