>>50345015Well, I'll list all issues I can remember off the top of my head, even if some of them might've or could've been fixed by Garnet.
-The game still having a chibi artstyle in the overworld while being 3D is stupid.
The game still having 2D battle sprites while the overworld is in 3D is stupid.
-Four direction movement is shitty and outdated and the game doesn't even give you the running shoes right away for no reason.
-Red Gyarados shows up on the TV at the start of the game and it's never mentioned again.
-The region design is incredibly boring and reuses the same shitty mountainous biomes everywhere which results in the same Pokemon getting repeated through the entire fucking game. It feels static and repetitive.
-The region design is ALSO nonsensical because you have routes like 228 that are randomly a little desert while having grassland surrounding it.
-All the Kanto pandering, which is so excessive that Professor Oak randomly shows up at the end of the game. My god man, it's like Kanto is overwriting the region itself.
-That and the excessive amount of Kanto Pokemon in the region results in native Sinnoh Pokemon being completely overshadowed. Sinnoh Pokemon are outnumbered 5 to 1 in the encounter tables, in trainer teams, and in the regional dex. It's so bad that Sinnoh Pokemon don't even get representation in the game world; things like statues or billboards are always of old Pokemon.
