>>31693686>ultra beasts were a missed opportunity and compose of little more than end game legendary catching which has been a thing since gen 1.>no battle frontier>lots of obviously cut content and areas, including steel, ice, fairy, and flying trials, the golf course, most of wela volcano, the tower in maille, etc>no vs seeker>no rebattles with a lot of prominent trainers, including lusamine, all of the trial captains except for the elite four members and kiawe/mallow, guzma in sun, etc.That said though, I still enjoyed the game immensely. The post game is lacking but that's a problem in nearly every game with the exception of Emerald, Plat, and BW2. The main playthrough was a an absolute blast, even with the cut content, the whole way through and it's one of the longest in the series, second only to the Johto and Unova games. Totems are a great idea and I hope they get expanded upon. My only problem is that it's far too easy to just exploit a 4x weakness and completely destroy the Totem because you only have to defeat one pokemon. Raticate, Salazzle, and Kommo-o were a joke because of this. However, the fights where this weren't a problem, especially Wishiwashi and Lurrantis, were a ton of fun and more challenging than any gym leader battle in the other games. The characters were more endearing and memorable than in any of the other games, the music is phenomenal, almost all the pokemon designs are amazing, Rotom Dex is a great idea, etc.
I really hope for a second version. Add the cut content and add more post game and they will easily be the best games in the series.
