All things that Sun and Moon completely erased from the series. How does it feel knowing (You)r favorite generation is still worse than the worst?
Gen 7 was a huge paradigm shift for the series, what you Alolatards fail to understand is that it didn't need to be a bad one. They could have at least cared to do the bare minimum that XY shilled out, but they didn't.
>trials are just gyms that were cut and reskinned in the debugging phase
>Alola is largely unmemorable due to the fact that players are just guided through it without any agency in exploring. Even the "side areas" are just dead ends that amount to nothing unlike Kalos Route 16 which actually loops around during the main campaign and has its own mini-dungeon.
>Story isn't even remotely engaging because the player has no stake in it and the lore never expands itself, which XY at least managed to do through themes and contextual events
>Alolan forms were LITERALLY only created to supplement LGPE, which is why they were only Kanto Pokemon with types Kanto was lacking
Anons on here don't like Sun and Moon. They like the mindless hype season that doesn't at all reflect what the games actually ended up being.
