>>45025500I think gen 5 is one of the best games but even still
>actually good writing and charactersno pokemon game has good writing or deep characters if we're honest, the slight high point here even is mediocre at best
>2 rivalsthis doesn't really make the game good or bad
>gym leaders are involved in the storyfair
>too many mini-gamesI don't know what this means
>you can do a lot of stuff in post-game, unlike the 3D gamesbw2 has a good post game
>has the best battle facility (PWT)still emerald, but the thought put into pwt is nice, if they combined this with other aspects of previous facilities it would easily be best
>region isn't full of NPCs who only talk about Kanto like Alola and GalarI think you want to say less pandering because aside from charizard there's not much more dialogue about kanto compared to previous games
>region isn't just hallways with empty towns like Alola and Galargalar yes, I think people underestimate the side areas in alola too much, there is quite a bit to explore outside of the main story
>actually felt polished and complete, they didn't need to make a 3rd version but a whole new sequelagreed, probably my biggest complaint about 3d era
