Snorlax roadblock was kinda boring, although we also had Reshiram and Zekrom inspired statues in the castle where we also fetch Furfrou, and I think it was kino.
I've always thought that the Musketeer trio would have fit much better in XY thahn in BW, especially because they already have their own Genie trio.
Agree on the Mewtwo cave. It would have been cool to at least have a crazy dungeon like how Zygarde had at least some exploration and rewards involved.
To be honest, Kalos had some pandering to various regions, but the free Pokemon like Lucario, Lapras or Torchic (with the event, of course), the early Snorlax, broken Exp. Share and horrible opponent movesets ruined the difficulty, and the underwhelming characters and story made an otherwise amazing region a complete wasted potential wich relied too much on pandering.
