>>47423791>Battle FrontierIt has PWT which is arguably better
>ContestIt had Musicals and Pokestar Studios as an equivalent side activity
>Safari ZoneShitty gimmick for small regions to dump there all the mons they couldn't fit in the other routes
>Game CornerNot the game's fault the laws about gambling in children's games changed
>Gym Leaders/Elite 4 only have X monsStill the hardest gyms/e4 in the franchise, even with fewer mons
>Region LockedYou still visit the same amount of cities as you do in the other games + you have new places to explore post game
>Rivals interrupt youAnd that's why they are the most complex rivals in the franchise, because they got enough time to be properly fleshed out
>Secret BasesUnimportant feature that was only present in what? 2 games?
>Region is not cohesiveTake your meds, it's literally one of the most well designed regions
>Can't catch new monsIntentional so that you can have a similar experience to gen 1 when everything was new + it was changed in B2W2
>CutscenesAnd that's why it had the best story by far
>Tutorials are unskippableLike every pokemon game
>Gym Leader rematchesA feature that was only present in 2 games + you can rematch them in PWT
>Removed PokefinderPokefinder wasn't a thing until gen 7, take your meds please
>Removed Honey treesAnother gimmick to stuff in some extra pokemon + hidden grottos are a thing
>Low quality graphicsWtf? Far better looking than gen 4 which was on the same console
>Removed berry farmingAnd now you can buy them instead which is more convenient
>Ball capsulesWhat even is this? Does anybody care about it?
>Following pokemon/pokeathlonMore gimmicks only present in one game. With the same logic, no other game had seasons so Gen 5=Best Gen. No other game had Mantine surfing so Gen 7=Best Gen
>Game is linearEvery pokemon game is linear. You probably meant that it doesn't have backtracking, but even then it actually does and thank god it's optional
Try harder next time
