>>44517664>Rainbow Rocket is a one-off thing. Portal-hopping, and the Battle Tree are all temporary gimmicks that get boring once you do them once, and there's little sense of progression. They're also retreads of stuff we've done before, since one is a Battle Tower clone and the other is a reskinned legendary hunt.Those aren't the only things in the post game. There's various trainers scattered throughout the map that appear only in the post game.
-Ilima at the Trainers' School (pic related)
-The Trainers' School principal
-Morimoto and Iwao at Game Freak's office
-All eight of the Eeveelution trainers
-Hala in Iki Town
-Updated Battle Buffet trainers
It's also worth noting that the second half of Poni Island is also post game only
>By sidequests, I don't mean the small little quests you can do on the side. I meant Contests, PokeStar Studios, etc.Alright, I stand corrected on this one. When you said quests, I thought you were referring to those tasks NPCs give you like the Pyukumuku chucking. Things like Contests are things I refereed to as mini games
