First 3 chapters are good. Then it creates a Mary Sue and then caters to ship fags with Ruby and Sapphire.

It redeems itself in the Gen 4 and 5 chapters but gets crap again at Gen 6.

The fanbase is worse than the anime fanbase.

It's clearly rushed and being balanced with two other series. Everything is suffering right now. The characters arent fleshed out in the slightest either.

There are good moments but it's certainly not a manga I would pay for if i lived in moonland.

Not a bad thing.

Confirmed for no having read it. Trevor is great there. Shauna and Tierno not so much but they're definitely better than their game versions.

>X keeps getting handed free Mega Evolving Pokemon, weakening his character arc about trusting people
Those do not correlate, but I agree that X getting mega evolving capable mons is annoying.

I don't know about perfect, but it is true that the current season is better than most of animes in recent years. To a point that the current fanbase is nowadays actually made of different kind of people (/a/, /m/, /v/) that came back to Pokemon after dropping it after the first season.

I'll give you XY, but that's only really okay at best. B2W2 has one hell of a mary sue for a protagonist who isn't really likable, especially after the extremely strong BW chapter.

On the other side, Ash is finally competent. I still like PokeSpe a lot more than the anime, but let's face the facts here; the anime's at least better than the shitshow known as ORAS right now.
>>
Only good thing to come out of BW2 was Rosa's outfit

Seriously. The anime is a 22 minute commercial aimed at young children that's only good for showing off Pokemon and Pokespe is generic shonen with obnoxious Mary Sue protagonists and crappy villains.

Careful anon, you'll piss off manchildren on both sides with that vitriol.
