>>40314196it just isn't very open ended, all the pokemon are same outside of typing, and there isn't enough characters for a gatcha.
They also can't add in PVP because the battle system is so skewed towards type effectiveness, and with a team of only 3 pokemon, usually 1 strike and 2 support for buffs, PVP would essentially be rock-paper-scissors with a meter at the bottom.
Then to top it all off, it costs so many diamonds just to get your 3rd gym leader from gen 5.
Oh, then there's the grinding aspect to get items to increase your level cap. So tedious. The last thing I want in a mobile game is to grind for 2 hours just to get the game to allow me to raise my level cap.
It just wasn't a very well thought out game. The presentation is great though. The 3d models look really amazing, but I wonder if just going with gatcha 2d pictures with interchangeable faces would've been cheaper and allowed for more characters.
