I’ve played nothing but ROMhacks since 2016 because I just hate the state of nu-Pokemon.
>DEI-pandering female designs
>Pokemon designs all suffer humiliation-ritual syndrome: nothing is allowed to be a coolmon anymore like Scizor or Hydreigon; it always has to have some silly or stupid design aspect to make it look non-threatening
>Dex is still getting cut so they can sell you the old mons back as DLC
>constant powercreep
>forced EXP share w/o a level cap to balance it
>forced fucking battle shift mode WTF?
>every gen has a forced battle gimmick that never carries on to new gens; the mechanics are now stagnant and no longer growing
Should I even consider myself a Pokemon fan at this point?
