Pokémon games have been getting more and more simple over time. Eurogamer highlighted this perfectly – there are zero dungeons in these games, and no route more complicated than viridian forest, a literal tutorial area from the earlier games. The new features like Dy amax battles are fine, but only that. It feels like they've just forgotten half the game. The story is brief, the Pokedex is brief, the areas are small and linear, the endgame is a joke… Honestly I wish I had never bought this, we vote with our wallets and I won't be buying any future pokémon games unless they lose the mobile-game-esque simplicity – or at least make it optional.
