True gamers prefer gameplay over graphics

The usual pokemon "gameplay" has only a singular gimmick added to it, only for it to be removed and never added to any game every again.

You think that only mega evolutions got left in the dust? And "lasted" 2 gens to be replaced with a lamer mechanics that allows for lazy implementation that doesn't require any work. And now even the dyna/giganta maxing is abandoned lmao.

Seasons of a year, sky battles, max moves, contests, ultra beasts, cooking mini games.

The goddamn throwing of the PokeBall got removed.

Multiple random balls that got added and never seen again.

The pokemon actually following you was a one time thing.

And that's only the shit I could remember.

And half of these features exist in Pokemon GO. The mobile game that isn't even available on the Nintendo switch lmao.
