>>54097998>routes are routes, you go somewhere with themIn other games maybe, in Kalos and Unova, the games you referenced, they consistently end in dead-ends, or paths back to a place you've already been.
>this isn't just some Genwar flamingSure right, it's just a coincidence you're pushing the exact same narrative the discord raiders have for years based on the same flimsy stretch of semantics
Your entire argument is
>this one area with a patch of grass is completely different from that game's three areas because it has route in the name and 2 exits!And *even if* that wasn't absolutely insane, people have done the math before counting "routes" as more exploration than other areas and Alola STILL objecitvely has more exploration than Kalos, almost tied with Unova. And that's ignoring the fact that many of the non-route areas are larger than other games' routes.
Take Poni Island as an example. 3 named optional areas, 2 of which have 2nd exits to other locations, are you really going to sit there and say they don't count because of the name?
