Can we take the time to appreciate the effort Gamefreak has put in some things?
Like Keldeo's following animation:

It's more like out of all the 500+ pokemon in Isle of Armor, they remembered 1 of those pokemon's gimmick.

As much as I hate to admit it, I totally could have seen Gamefreak make Keldeo NOT work on water cause that would be easier.

I really don't understand why the Keldeo bit is impressive. It doesn't have any special animations when walking on water, so it just plain looks unfinished.

It's like if the player just started walking onto the water without the Rotom Bike. It doesn't make it look more whole.

As for the walking mechanics itself, it really is even just a half baked version of Let's Go's walking system, just void of all interaction, and instead of just using the party menu for sending in and out your Mons, it's all done by some random NPC.

This whole thing is literally put here as a selling point of the DLC, but it's so shallow in practice.

Keep in mind we live in the age of the internet. Hard to believe, I know.

Due to the fact anyone can post Switch footage online, anyone can see people walking with their Pokemon, and end up buying the DLC just for that.

They don't need to directly advertise it. But as it's a feature people have been wanting, people will see it and jump, only to find out it's a half-baked immitation.

No, Rotom makes it so you can go faster. Else there would be 0 reason to peddle. In fact, Rotom just enhances your bike, it's the trainer that goes extra hard when you use Rotom boost.

Wouldnt be hard to remove the "would you like to surf yes no".
Just have the character pull out his surfing mon and jump on it (with a very quick 1 sec animation) everytime you walk to the water edge
Here, you have muh seamless transition without needing to remove one of the few interactions we used to have with our pokemon on the map....
