They had to make compromises, but there's a more good stuff here than anything that came before.
We can't let this go the way of Gen 5. The vision behind this game was commendable, and the clumsy execution was a result of immensely tight deadlines and pressure for yearly output.
If this was released 6 months from now, they would have been the perfect pokemon titles.
Good news, anon.
The Pokemon games have a future.
