Two things:
a)It's not the main series so they don't have to suck its dick.
b)Even though the main storyline is easier than a typical roguelike (and even with postgame don't really get anywhere close to that level of difficulty until Lv. 1 dungeons), they're still noticeably harder than main series.

How the fuck is this averaged? I know certain things should be weighted more but based on these numbers, it looks like Presentation has far more value than anything else while Lasting Appeal isn't factored in at all.

Review would've been adequate had it not been for those poor opinions.
Not going to judge the numbers because in reality they are arbitrary.

while it's cool that it added a few special episodes, you still must complete the main story, which is pretty much the very same, before playing those, and i don't know if back then, it really would be worth to pay a full priced game again if you wanted to get that new content.
also it only added about 4 new pokemon while it made 2 old pokemon partner only.

buddy idk if you know this but all of the imagine babyz games and others like it are literal shovelware that look nothing like their cover art

this isn't about a game "not targeting you" it's about objective quality, and the fact that it scored what it did is fucking laughable. review was paid for, or done by a moron who will just publish anything to get paid.

Honestly, sometimes it still surprises me the state of reviewers and critics. Almost 2 decades ago, even though there were some polemic paid cases here and there, it was still considered a joke that all of the critic was incompetent hotpocket retards who had no idea what they were talking about.
Now the joke has become our reality. It's amusing.

Imagine being this fucking lazy. The main story is not that long or difficult. And it’s not “a few special episodes,” it’s at least 6-7ish hours of new content.

They are seriously bad games

If you stripped them down and took away the Pokémon guise, you would see how poor these games are.

You unlock the special episodes at various points during the story. The fifth and last special episode is unlocked near the start of the postgame, which is about halfway through the game's story. You don't need to complete the whole thing to access the new content.
Besides, this is a rerelease. I don't like it either, but it's ridiculous to complain about third versions and then praise Platinum (a game that wasn't even released at the time this review was written) in the same paragraph.

Nothing. Time, Space and Sky were the best in the series. Journalist probably never saw the ending or probably skipped all the text. Probably the most serious and dark Pokemon game, even out of the mainlines (Except gen 5, maybe).
