This is the same problem I had and its why I love SM so much.
I think you should try that especially for the way they use Team Rocket. Most episodes Team Rocket just has a “meanwhile” sequence while they do something completely unrelated to Ash

Also I want to add that SM Ash is a fucking beast. The XY autists in /padt/ will try to say otherwise but most of them don’t even actually watch Sun and Moon so I wouldn’t listen to them.

Nobody says this everyone either says OG/XY/ or SM if you're a contrarian.
DP is love it or hate it and it isn't widely considered the best.

DP is widely considered better than XY. There's far better development for Ash and his Pokemon, and Dawn is a far better girl protagonist than Serena

There actually wasn't anything wrong with that considering it was also a room in DP and it was a move cancelled by another move that is also SE. If you were calling out Hawlucha suddenly getting X-Scissor out of nowhere then you'd have a point, since that's what everyone calls out as bullshit.

you couldn't cut it. That's what made DP better. Ash had to actually find a way to deal with it rather than just canceling it out like that.

I prefer having the effects close to the games. Seeing Ash having to strategize is much better.

DP fans must just be quieter, or maybe it's just XY fans are so obnoxiously loud because I never seen DP fans and when I do they are shat on.
OS, AG, and SM are best in my book.

I don't know where you have been. But I always see that XYfags get shat on by everyone else. DPfags are probably quiet because they know that DP is the best and don't need to state the obvious.

Ash didn't actually deal with Trick Room at all.
He strong armed it and they even mentioned it during the battle in DP. If anything, him dealing with Trick Room like he did in XY was him strategizing.

I suppose when your exposure to a series is streaming the entire thing in 3 days, you'll be left with a different impression to those who watched it weekly for years.

Gible didn't absorb anything, it just literally bit down it's hand then by stroke of luck in the narrative it managed to send Dusknoir up with Draco Meteor. In the end he just brute forced everything and didn't actually deal with the room.

In XY Ash was using the Trick Room as a boost for Hawlucha to build momentum for power and breaking it was using Psychic's weaknesses to bust out. The only bullshit thing was Hawlucha suddenly having a move when there was nothing that suggested having it at all.

A little of A, a little of B, and some helping of C.
Fact of the matter is that DPfags got shat on during BW's run, and it's now XYfags' turn to get shat on during SM. The thing is both DP and XY are considered the good series out of everything after OS.
