My thoughts are megas could have been a lot better than they were ultimately, Z-Moves were fun but also just a guaranteed KO if casualfagging, dynamax was interesting in lore but crap to actually raid against and tera is the best of the lot despite the issues with raids (in case you can't guess, IDGAF about comp). But that's as much because their respective emergences were tied to legends found in the regions, with varying degrees of connectivity with Terapagos being the most intrinsically linked with its games.
