People tend to give XY a lot of flack because it kickstarted the 3D era, and the fact it was overall underwhemling compared to the Platinum-B2W2 golden era.
But can we admit nu-Pokemon really started with SM and not XY? SM started all of the problems with the newer games, from the removal of natdex to addition of gimmicks and everything inbetween, and that shouldn't be a shocker since these were the first games Ohmori fully directed.
It feels like Pokemon lost its soul trying to copy what worked for YKW / competing with mobileshit ("we removed the BF because kids have phones!") and never recovered.
