>>54867546>>competent storyYes, a "story" where you're treated like an NPC 99% of the time until the finale where you're supposed to catch a god-like legendary because LE UNDEFEATABLE CHAMPION actually got his ass kicked by it with the power of Worse Hau and two wolves, and a metric fuckton of friendship armor.
>>beautiful open world with different unique biomesOnly in one area which was tacked on at the last second because SwShit were upscaled 3DS games and they had to do something to make it unique.
>>memorable gym leadersOnly ones that can be considered memorable are Nessa and Melony, and that's only due to porn.
>>a champion that's actually toughLeon is the 3rd easiest champion after Geeta and Wallace.
>>no time travel/imagination/wormhole shitThen explain the Legendary (and Ultra Beast) Convention in Dynamax Adventures.
>>no parallel universesAgain, explain the Ultra Beasts reappearing.
>>no KANTOOOOOOOOOOOOOO panderingIn a game where nearly half of the Gigantamax forms are from, and LE UNDEFEATABLE CHAMPION has CHARIZARD as his ace, and a random Dugtrio mountain for no reason.
>>custom characters that actually look custom>>minimal glitchesOk those are honestly fair points. Plus we can actually wear skirts in SwSH so thats one point I can actually give it.
>>interesting DLC and an actual post gameFighting against Squidward or Shielbert depending on version is not an actual post game. Likewise the DLC is not interesting in the slightest, and is only useful (for now) so you can get Urshifu, Calyrex and Regieleki without hacking or trading.
