>>45746502>The betsst defense you might hear from them was that its sub average by pokemon standardsIn some ways the game is above average.
This for example was a really cool boss battle. Dynamax is really underrated as a mechanic. Provided you aren't overleveled, the dynamax pokemon in gyms can oneshot you if you aren't careful. Plus there's also the stat buffs/debuffs and the weather that come with some dynamax moves. Klara in the DLC gave me a lot of trouble too, though I did box my whole team for a new one.
Wild Area isn't bad either. It's not bad for exploration and there's a lot of available pokemon.
