>>53464497Truth is that if you like gen 5 there's no reason why you can't like anything afterwards. Gen 5 is was closer to Gen 6 design-wise than Gen 4. XY is just BW with a worse climax and better pokemon availability. You are unironically an extremely delusional person if you worship gen 5 as the holy grail and hate everything that came out afterwards with a passion.
>b-but the content!Battle Subway, Battle Maison, Battle Tree, all the same fucking thing at the end of the day. PWT is great fanservice sure but the gameplay isn't too different from the Subway, don't be a hypocrite and ignore SwSh's restricted sparring if you're going to jerk off the PWT. I can give you the facility with Benga and the postgame bosses with Cynthia and N, but it's not like they restrict your levels, you can overcome them just fine.
