>>36200119If it's one thing about Generation 7 that I can say I like it's that somebody somewhere realized that doing 8 badges is starting to get old. They still hold on to the concept, Kahuna's are basically Gym Leaders except there's just four of them. But totems were a good idea. Still they're basically doing the same things over and over again only with bigger and bigger numbers. You start with Team Rocket who basically just want to make money on dog fights and weird experiments. Unlike the official Pokemon League who makes their money on dog fights and less weird experiments. Skip to gen 3 and we have decided to completely eliminate the ocean? Like most of the ocean with a creature who can set the sky on fire with nothing but his existence. Cyrus was autistic so I guess he gets a pass? But how did the plot of the first Kingsman movie make it into a Pokemon game? Team flare suits or pretty snazzy though so there's that.
I think Game Freak should continue to try and distance themselves from the I want to be the very best like no one ever was thing. There has to be a different progression system you can do.
