It still had fuckups like gym requirements, no breeding, etc but it attempted to be something new
Sword and Shield is the same Pokemon game from 3Ds except with less Pokemon, less moves, even less postgame with not a single thing that matters to make up for it
Literally the only thing Sword and Shield can say is that it has the best character customization in the franchise, and I'm pretty sure that it barely matters in the long run
