PLA is great and is what the franchise needed a LONG time ago.
Like this is what gen 5 should have been.
>Overworld mons and overworld shinies
It's about time, should be the norm going forward. nuff said.
>catching system
Needs work for fully evolved/legos/mythicals, but for the random shitmons? It's perfect. No, I DONT want to actually battle a fucking shinx for the millionth time to catch it.
>Battle system
is finally more than gen 1 with shit layerd on top. It's FFX, and thats a GOOD thing. The way you actually play and progress though the game actually feels like a radically different and NEW experience.
>Evo items/Grit/mint being farmable
Just makes completing the dex easier and allows for experimentation with mons. It's not a huge ordeal to get mons ready for end game content/PvP.
>Grit system
is better than the EV/IV system. Could use some work but just for the fact it's NOT an obtuse time waste or money sink like the current systems makes it better. It also makes it so you can't "ruin" a mon by just playing the game normally, "forcing" you to use various ways to get rid of EVs aka, waste more time/money.
>Boss V trainer battles
Neat idea, done very boring. The game is way too slow and the mons don't chain attacks. They need to go play Monster Hunter to get an idea how to make them better or just drop the idea.
