The lazy execution of using 3D models for everything. It could have been great, guess I'll wait 2 years for the switch game. Cutscenes for everything is a close second. Jesus fuck SM

3D models was my second reason. I'm a shiny Hunter, and seeing dozens upon dozens of decent shinys turned to trash rubbed me the wrong way.

the Reduction of the Post-game over the generations, which also killed the replayability of the newer titles.

Game Freak's insisting on removing beloved features that work and people enjoy and replacing them with something terrible every time they release a game.
Imagine where this franchise could be right now, if Game Freak actually gave a fuck and did not cut great content every single fucking time...

A combination of many things, not least of which would be GameFreak's creative staff. Ultimately though I think it all comes down to the market, with Nintendo demanding that GF pump out title after title because Pokemon always yields massive sales. So what happens is that GF shills like fuck, especially to trendy hipsters and fans of the anime, and so we end up with a bunch of fursuits and waifumons, stories that constantly pander to progressive attitudes instead of simply being fucking cool, and some lazy, shitty new features and mechanics thrown into the gameplay under the guise of words like 'Mega' and 'Ultra' to convince autists and children that eating shit is awesome.

Yeah, that's about it.

Nothing has ruined Pokémon in opinion, some things are questionable decisions but I don't feel anything as destroyed the series or anything.

Masuda's reasoning for why the BF wasn't in ORAS essentially became the design philosophy for the postgame of the entire 3ds era.

Bending to a fanbase that will cry out in anger and disgust the moment they try to change anything thus leading to everything "new" feeling hollow as hell.

The word you're looking for is "pander". Shilling is when a paid advertiser pretends to be a neutral party while praising something.

Games - Less exploration and secret paths. I know the 3d games really started on this hard, but I don't blame the 3d inherently.

TCG - How fucking long turns got. SuM fixed that a bit, but I can never play expanded because of shit like Shaymin-Ex making turns last up to 5 minutes.

I only add the tcg because I play more of that and that really gets me harder than anything the games do.

Pretty sure you're just uncomfortable with the inclusion of PoC characters and proximal LGBT characters, bigotfag.

The games gradually becoming less and less challenging. I mean I understand they are childrens games but going from Platinum/BW2 to the 3DS titles is a joke. Challenge mode should not have been forgotten.

The increasing reliance on gimmicks, shark jumps, and hand-holding to keep games accessible and "relevant". ORAS is a prime example of everything a Pokemon game shouldn't do.

The games are too slow, both in over-world and combat, also the 3d models need an overhaul, i can't wait for switch'mon
