>>39488144There's a lot I liked and a lot I disliked about these games, though I am also optimistic about Let's Go 2 Johto.
>things I liked/enjoyedFollowing Pokemon
Ride Pokemon
Removal of HMs
Art style (animations were weak though)
Remade music
Expansion of wild Pokemon distribution and variety
Overworld encounters
>Things I disliked that need removed or improvedMissing FRLG content, lack of Sevii Islands and any decent postgame
Lack of cross-generation evolutions and pre-evolutions
Lack of breeding
Removal of abilities
Candy system
Limited mon interaction (starter only)
No option to turn Exp. Share off or change difficulty beyond Shift/Set
Lack of wild battles
Docked play is shit (shit catching motion controls, one handed control awkward)
Overall, I had fun with this game. Loved riding Rapidash around, battles were about as fun as the usual Pokemon games, nice to see Kanto in 3D. But the fun was relatively short-lived, as none of the postgame content (of which there was very little) was very compelling to me. Not nearly worth $60, but if one can buy it for $30 or less then I would recommend it.
