>online features peak with Gen 6 and the PSS
>throw it all away for some clunky festival shit
>no Pokémon game has had a better online experience since
The shift to the Festival Plaza really opened my eyes on the design philosophy behind each new Pokémon generation. They gotta add new gimmicks to make it stand out from each other. It doesn’t matter if previous gens had better mechanics. It just needs to be different.
Alola in general gives off a “we totally haven’t been stagnant for 20 years, look at all these new features and changes to the formula we’ve made!”, which is ironic considering that Galar brought back traditional gyms right after
