>>50008526>>Given one of the three KANTOOOO starters less than an hour into the gameAt least it doesn't give you a choice between Snivy, Oshawott and potential Emboar. Gosh, I wanna puke every time I have to choose a starter in Unova
>>The only mons who received Megas are mons from previous generationsWell duh. It's for the better. Look at Gigantamax - most of generation 8 Pokemon who received Gigantamax got a worse version of their original design. Or look at regional variants - do you upset we didn't get alolan versions of alolan pokemon too?
>>Introduced 72 new mons, the least out of any genQuality over quantity. Kalos have 72 Pokemon, 68 of them are great, Unova have 156 Pokemon only 102 of them are great and amongst other 54 are the ones of the worst Pokemon ever.
>>"Rivals”, that nobody can nameShauna is my waifu and Tierno is my husbando, so shut up. (The other two are Trevor and Serena, and I know it because XY has the best Pokemon anime seasons of all time)
>>AI trainers don’t use held itemsLet's GO and Legend Arceus don't even have mechanic of held item. That's the future of Pokemon games, boomer
>>” Quality of life” features like entire party EXP shareYeah, right. Grinding is good, no grinding is bad.
>>Easiest games in the entire franchiseWant a challenge? Go play Dark Souls. XY is comfy and cozy, welcoming game, the best option for new players who started their Pokemon journey for the first time in 3D
>>Remains the only Pokémon game to this day so bad it didn’t even get a third versionThird version is "improved", there is nothing to improve in the perfection
