>KantoHas a lot of KANTO pandering
>JohtoProfessor that isn't relevant to the game and shit level curve
>HoennAnnoying and cardboard cutout rival, only good rival can only be battled 2 or 3 times.
>SinnohThe first few gyms are slow as fuck and then as soon as the 4th one comes around the game speeds up like no tomorrow
>UnovaShoves "lore" down your throat (the plot is worse in Sword and Shield)
Unova pandering
>KalosMissed opportunity locations and plot points
Corridor routes
