>>39486735Because it's a bad game, I'm playing it for the first time after getting it for cheap and it sucks. Actually despite seeing people shit on it for over a year on here I'm surprised by just how awful it is, it may be the worst Nintendo game I'm going to actually beat.
I'm about to do Sophocle's trial and I feel like I've done very little in the game so far. All of the islands seem very uninteresting and pretty linear and most of my time has been spent listening to characters talking. I don't feel like there is a whole lot to the routes and when I try to go off on my own I get cut of my a stoutland or tauros.
The game has also been very easy, most of the trainers have only one or too Pokemon and there is no penalty for using yungoos with normilium to attack with a Z move the first turn one-shotting a vast majority of the standard trainer classes Pokemon, I've just stopped using it for a bit of variety. Only thing that has given me any sort of trouble is the totem Salazzle, and that's mainly because three of my four Pokemon were weak to it.
Best thing in this game so far are the characters and soundtrack, but they aren't making the game experience fun. Also the ride Pokemon are sweet, t's nice to not have HMs. Don't know exactly how far I am in the game, but I'm hoping perhaps the ultra beasts will make it better, they seem to be what /vp/ likes the most at least.
