>>39862566Exactly this. After X and Y were infantessimally worse than their predecessors on the fucking DS, BW2, I gave up all hope.
Every game since then has just never fixed fatal issues and they're all incredibly tedious, full of shit rivals and unstoppable boring cutscenes. SS having no national dex with absolutely zero justification just confirms they've run out of energy with the franchise, I like some of the new Pokemon shown but the reskinned animations just seal the deal, game freak can't be arsed so why give them my money, glad I never bought sm or usum
