I don't understand Gamefreak's logic.
Lets GO! are supposed to be a bridge for GO fans into the main series, right?
So why did they COMPLETELY gut wild battles?
Surely the best way to slowly ease them in would be to go half and half?
Have wild battles as normal but then shift into the GO style once you actually choose to throw a Pokeball.
I don't really see how you're easing them into it if they're just completely removing the staples of the main series.
