>>46437451Not OP, but USUM fits the bill. It was the ultimate game for the 3DS era, but people told me it derails the story of SM, has the same if not more massive amounts of cutscenes than SM, and the increasing railroading, handholding and pandering of certain Pokemon.
I personally only played the beginning part of the game, from a card I borrowed, quitting just after getting a starter because I can't stand all the incessant cutscenes.
Graphics's decent, though. That part is definitely high quality by Pokemon games' standards.
