There isnt at least 50 QTEs where half of them repeat the same animation, also constant interrupting cutscenes, and several segments where the boss is completely immune to damage so i have to wait to progress. I want my boss fights to last at least an hour.

They’re good gameplay when using other Pokémon games as a metric. So using previous entries as a comparison, it’s good because it’s more engaging than just pressing A through menus and ending with spamming pokeballs. It requires more brain activity than just spamming pokemon moves or whatever to win, that makes it more engaging.
Comparing it to other games it’s just alright nothing special about it. But this is a pokemon board so it’s natural to use previous pokemon games as a metric for how we experience new games.
Hope that makes sense.

The final boss of the main campaign was definitely lackluster, the legend you caught should have been integrated into the fight, rather than just help you in a cutscene before the fight.
I think my complaint goes towards the difficulty of them, i wish all of them were harder, not full on bullet hell hard. The camera definitely needs improvements for damn sure.

From an objective standpoint using existing mechanics in a different ways to make a more challenging battle is the textbook definition of a good boss fight. In this case, throwing balms instead of pokeballs at a pokemon that is stronger and has more time and ability to fight back. The existing catching gameplay is used in a different situation that requires you to focus on the boss and survival instead of just running up and tossing one ball.

They were cool set pieces, but the huge problem with them was the camera
You need to tilt it up to get a high enough angle on your throw which makes it hard to see your feet and avoid stuff coming at you on the ground like shockwaves
This was most present in the last fight

I like it because I like action mechanics and it's a nice change of pace after already having battled hundreds of Pokémon prior to that fight with the same mechanics. Although I do think it's kind of retarded that you can beat bosses without ever throwing out a Pokémon.

eh, they could be more varied for sure. but the later I liked quite well.
They're also much better boss battles than totem Pokemon

When does pokemon just become an action game where you control the pokemon instead that can run around, dodge, and has your several moves mapped to face buttons

I personally love them. I agree that the actual Pokemon part of the battles is underutilized, but I love dodging and rolling out of the way of attacks.

It's not trying to be dark souls, it's not trying to be monster hunter, it's just a different way of fighting pokemon, you're a sperg for thinking no one can enjoy this change of pace while also acknowledging it's not as in depth as the combat systems from games about combat like monster hunter and dark souls, holy fuck doomfags are so retarded

you can critique this element of the game without making disingenuous arguments as if anyone thinks this is the peak of combat or something. I just think it's more entertaining than brainless spam super effective move battles

I really like the idea of synthesis between the action gameplay and turn based gameplay. Pokemon has always had trouble with boss fights since the combat was exclusively designed around player match-ups so they were always squishy, these bosses all play by their own ruleset

It's more fun than a gym boss fight where you just pack a super-effective typing and sweep everything. If you're lucky the gym might have a small puzzle.

They're not. You can damage them with balms the entire time. But you will probably take some damage yourself.
