>>48421637>EXP share works like it does in the later games, making grinding less of a pain>You can access the PC from anywhere, which makes swapping pokemon a sinch>Super Contest is a rhythm game that actually looks fun>HMs are no longer required, being relegated to the poketch and saving slots on your team for your bros instead of HM slaves>Following pokemon are coming back from HGSSIt's looking to overall be an improvement, and your statement they're "culling mons" is retarded because we know the Platinum dex will be in the game from screenshots and trailers we've seen up until now. Just because you can't make use of an optional - and really pointless - feature I never even used in the OG doesn't mean they're "culling mons" and certainly doesn't make it worse than the original games (since you're an XY zoomie who didn't play DP, you wouldn't know that this limitation was in place in the original DP and likely they've expanded the list). In fact, with following pokemon, you can have ANY pokemon follow you at ANY OTHER TIME, so why the fuck are you bothered about this one optional area?
