>>49119032>broken level curve with no good places to grind in order to get on par with gym leader PokemonNope, this game is as piss easy as the others. You don't need to grind if you fight all trainers along the way and if you do, start retracing your steps because you've clearly dropped your brain somewhere.
>too many fucking Kanto mons, and some Pokemon are too rare to findSo is this a problem in all other games it appears in or...?
>worthless post game regionGetting to see how the world of the previous game changed is one of the best post games Pokemon has ever done.
>no battle towerCrystal,Heart Gold and Soul silver have this. The latter has more.than just that.
>no good way to shiny huntNot a problem for me; I go outside
>has HMsControversial, but HMs were actually a good thing: It gave an almost metroidvania form of exploration to go back to old places with new ways to traverse. Gen 7 got it right in the sense it shouldn't effect your team's move set.
Gen 8's exploration suffered because you have bike and bike for when it's wet.
