>>58495519>BDSPDP/10. That's kind of it. It added new moves from latter gens, made legendaries possible to acquire, and made the endgame harder, but that's it. The gym and E4 rematches are cool, though.

The battling system is genuinely cool if not full of jank (your mon trying to enter a bush to do a ranged attack), showing that GF was willing to change a tried-and-true formula for once in their life. The difficulty curve is genuinely well-thought, and it's very dense with content. The characters are nice, the humor can land sometimes, the endgame is competent, the online is fun, and there is a surprise comeback for proper dungeons. The postgame bosses are also great.
But this game is also frustrating because it is very below par when talking about textures- even when compared to Scarlet/Violet's one big thing with textured Pokémons. And that's not going for the low fruit that are the fucking buildings. Playing this game feels like you're playing a good game, but you know they could have put out a better product. It's hard to put into words.
