All the contrarians who've hated everything for the last 12 years decided this was different enough that they would be so smart for realizing that and praising it while everyone who enjoyed the other games would hate it. Unfortunately they ignored the praise it was getting from other people until it was too late and they fell for their own lie.

>Unconventional setting with mild edginess (the land is untamed and people have died in Pokémon attacks)
>Extra-Japanese setting when it looked like Japan would never happen again
>Expands on existing lore to the point of confirming that a human once married and impregnated a Froslass. And does this *without* lazily recycling any assets from the original DPPt.
>The premise of "here's a PokéDex, go out and gather info for my studies" portrayed actually coherently instead of being ignored immediately.
>Manually throwing Pokéballs likewise more immersive, in a way that triggers nostalgia for the anime
>Plot has the player getting to shape the course of history by bridging the gap between villagers and Pokémon, and includes a shakeup to the status quo at one point (getting charged with a crime, exiled from the hub zone and forced to do a walk of shame) which while not much is bolder than the games usually go for

They deserve the slightest grain of respect for doing something different and producing an almost mediocre game instead of just doing the same shit since game boy except worse
Does not change the fact that even PLA was rushed and made by an incompetent team but it's a step in the right direction, even though the journey to a actually great game would require a marathon

It's the best of the 3D games. Gen 6 ruined this franchise but the way that LA and SV have turned out have me very hopeful for the future. Those two are fun games and I like that they're trying new things

Because they tried
The game has atrocious presentation, but at least they made an effort to try something interesting

Same reason why gen 2 is liked, the games are objectively bad, but they tried to do something cool, and it really stands out because of it

Unironically because the average /vp/ person rates games exclusively on how much shit they can do after the credits roll, and this game pretends to end earlier than it did.
Otherwise, it is another game with bad writing and piss easy main campaign much like every other recent new game.

You have 9 generations of essentially the same fucking game, getting a game that is actually different, improves on multiple things and became super fresh, tends to do that.
It helps that the game actually has content, and we got a free update that gave us even more shit to do.

Obviously it's still flawed, but unlike traditional Pokemon, it's worth it, compared to SWSH being basic games with all their problems

If your reasoning for liking a generation is because OLD POKEMON got new forms, then it wasn't a good generation.

Gen 6 was cool but nowhere near good as an actual game.

It's based on the period when Ezo got absorbed into Japan as Hokkaido, but they "gathered people from far and wide" so a bunch of the guys running the expedition are unambiguous Westerners (including a brown Galarian); the village is Japanese-looking but their HQ is built in Western style.

One of the not-Ainu characters is of unclear gender, but they're also a huge prick who causes trouble for everyone.

The not-Ainu are implied to be descended from an ancient civilisation of superhuman blond people who could communicate directly with God.
