>game makes you deal with iv/ev autism and doesn't give you sufficient methods for it until beating Koga meanwhile gym leaders have perfect stats
>complete lack of good tms until way late game meanwhile gym leaders are using smogon OU levels of learnsets
>gym leaders have megas before you do
>game goes off smogon competitive ruleset, but there are changes to the pokemon, changes to the abilities, new abilities, changes to moves, etc which basically make them fakemon and half of them would not fit in competitive battling
>no way to reset EVs or IVs until saffron as well so you can't even change your pokemon around and just forced to catch a new one
>challenge severely drops off the more you get farther in the game, because the challenge is "you have less than the bosses you have to fight lul" and as soon as you finally catch up with perfect ivs/evs, with megas, with a good set of TMs and move tutors, and more the challenge just turns into a joke this means that the challenge of this game is entirely skill-less and revolves more around having the same amount of tools as the gym leaders
>AI will "cheat" by knowing what held items/abilities you have, so they won't waste a turn trying to sleep you if you have a lum berry or insomnia
>AI is horrendously bad sometimes and makes some wins feel cheap
>Blue's team in the final battle is hot trash and the worst champion bar none, even vanilla games have better team compositions like Cynthia in Platinum or Iris from BW2
Don't see why this game is being touted as the best game by every youtuber.
