>>56687290Play X/Y with the self-discipline of an adult to change up your team several times throughout the playthrough, including boxing your starter. If you start stomping all battles box your MVP and get something new. It's a rushed Pokemon game people who play the games constantly with an understanding of all the mechanics find too easy, but X/Y had the largest regional dex at launch and there's a lot to catch. Spoiler: If you use Honedge or any Ghost type at the Fighting 3rd Gym it has no moves to hit you with. Now that you know that the Gym can be challenging without a full immunity. There's retarded oversights and offset level scaling like that which is different from the bare minimum polish of prior games, so you have to play it differently. Don't use items in battle as the game, and really all Pokemon games, are too easy if you do. Keep items in your bag to heal so you don't have to go back to the pokemon center halfway through a route.
If you don't want any self-imposed rules then play original Sun/Moon. It has a human character as the climatic boss fight with unique story-only battle mechanics applied to a full good movesets team instead of a Lv70 legendary that is overpowered unless you use a Lv5 Zorua's ability to trick the legendary's AI for several turns. Everyone loves the characters of Gen 7 but absolutely hates all the cutscenes, so many
people have never done a second voluntary playthrough. USUM was marketed with ULTRA CHANGES and then everyone who bought the game sat through another 20 hours of mostly the same unskippable cutscenes just for some additional post-game content that felt like a patch. Do your 1 playthrough to join the club and gain firsthand knowledge to shitpost and complain with.
Suggesting these will probably lead to something like
>XYfag>aloladefenderYes and Yes. All Pokemon games are different flavors of shit, but OP is asking to play a VI+ game and they are better than the Switch games.
