>>37227725>You should try having an actual argument other than buzzwordsYou basically describing yourself
>the group dynamic between pretty much everyone else were great The group dynamic between everybody was even worst. Its like Ash traveling with his own group of cheerleaders. Unlike DP where the group chemistry with everybody better.
>Because Steven and to a lesser extent Diantha didn't?Not as much as Cynthia who was actually treated like a Champion and involve with the saga from the beginning. Steven wasn't confirmed to be champion until Mega evolution special and his role was still shorter than Cynthia. Not to mention that Cynthia acted like a guide for both Ash and Paul during DP series.
>can you stop just spouting buzzwords and empty statements? so anything against Serena are buzzwords and empty statements?
>The battles in DP were not only poorly animated compared to XY but also poorly written Sounds like a desperate XY fans trying to claim a coal as gold! Whatever Ash did against Olympia was no different than strategies Ash used to beat other gym leaders on Jotho, Hoenn and Sinnoh. However Paul manage to shut Ash down and always remain one step ahead of him with actual planning that involve using pokemon's ability and attack to its full potential.
Unlike XY where battles were simply pillowing though with power. Specially considering how Alain won every battle ether pillowing though with Dragon Claw or use Blast Burn. Writers pretty much had to used a blunt plot Armor to make Alain win every battle.
That fact that you even think that Shota, Tierno and Travor was tougher than competent trainers like Paul, Conway and Nando proves your own bad judgement.
At the end, XY just had animation but DP had better writing.
>Like most CotD from any series.Not with DP
