Why does the Laverre clock have 13 hours?

Weird how shitty XY seemed at the time.
It's actually really good for Pokémon standards.
>Comfy towns
>Somehow better customisation than gen 7
>Huge dex to create a different team each playthrough
>Cool areas like the cliffs near the 2nd gym and Reflection Cave
>Fairytale vibes, I didn't pick up on this when it first came out
>Lumiose could've been better but I appreciate the cafés, hidden trainers and boutiques
>Aesthetics move through the seasons

It would've been so much better with the gen 5 and 7 Exp yield though.
I'm so upset Z never happened :(

Thats not true at all. BW started the "interruption every 5 steps" trend, then XY trimmed it down a lot and then SM doubled even BW amount

I think it's because Sun and Moon lowered our expectations and X/Y is a way better game. Says a lot.

>Gen 7 is so grating that the idea of another playthrough is torture
Necrozma took a dump on me and I've only picked the game up once since then to train my mons for the second attempt. The only thing I have to look forward to after is the Victory Road and catching Aipom and Pyroar. I don't care about the wormhole shit personally.

I don't mind a challenge but with SM I didn't even complete a 2nd playthrough.
What is it exactly that makes gen 7 so unplayable?

Theories:
>Small dex with too many gen 1 mons, we've seen plenty of them throughout the years and now limited to what we actually want to use in teams
>The new mons are slow and/or frail making them frustrating to use
>Grid based movement is gone potentially making them less comfy?
>Alola is like a giant tourist attraction with the huge roads everywhere, no sense of being "out in the wild"
>Towns and cities are literally a square and don't have gyms so are more like a forgettable rest stop.
>Music is kind of irritating to me for some reason.
>Go here. Now go here. Now go here.
>In a way the Rotom Map ruins what little exploration there is.
>Tutorial Island.
>SOS battles that have no benefits except shiny/nature hunting, but this is far less convenient than the Dex Nav which we literally just had in ORAS.
>Starters are polarising, most people only like 1 or 2.

Why did all the nu-viewers at IGN and whatever give SM such high scores? Did Nintendo threaten to not give them review copies anymore unless they gave the game a high score?

Most people nowadays value presentation over substance so we end up with things that look nice but have limited gameplay potential overall.

I don’t get the SM whining. Only thing I can agree with is the cut scenes. They are also the most challenging games to date, and they break the norm with an interesting formula. I can’t really see what is wrong with these games.

On the other hand I loathed Gen 6. The games are so disgustingly easy and handholdy. Ruby and Sapphire were my favorite games, and the remakes just ruin them.

It's been rising every gen since 2 but BW took it further since both of your rivals popped up fairly often and Plasma did things that involved more dialogue instead of just "battle me, see ya". Alder also pops up to talk about pseudo-philosophy or some shit as well.

Not up for debate kiddos. SM/USUM has the first implementation of EV trained opponents within the scenario, as well as Totem bosses. No previous game has ever thrown anything at you on that level.

It also has superpowered battle items, refresh, lots of valuable freebies like focus sash and choice specs, rotom-dex, and z-moves. Your foes having EVs is meaningless when you eclipse them all with the amount of broken shit handed over to you.
>b-but just don't use them!
then you're admitting the game is easy unless you give yourself a handicap. The game is easy, get over it.
