Was everything relating to single player in this game made in a year?
>absolutely no optional towns or diversions in the story, it's literally a one way journey where you do the gyms and fight Hop in every one
>Many battles straight up don't have a background, just different colours of void
>Couldn't be bothered to give gyms 7 and 8 a unique puzzle
>Wyndon, the largest city, has fuck all to do in it
>What was the point of Marnie in the story?
>Bede being taken out of the plot for half the game feels lazy
>A few instances where something exciting seems to be happening only for it to be solved off-screen
>Worst iteration of battle tower
I could go on and on. These games has a budget of $5. They cut half the Pokémon in promise of a superior product but it doesn't show at all
