So did these two games do anything right?

Communication features
Decent designs
Okay music
Fun gameplay

Yeah thats about it

>>27190242
A lot.

>>27190242
It got a lot of people back into Pokemon.

Also sitting on benches.

>>27190268

Biggest problems were just that the Gym and League battles were a fucking joke, and there wasn't a lot of post-game content.

Trainer customization, Based fossilmons, better than average percentage of good mons (because the sample size was smaller), Super Training (More because they let you even see EV's), and Amie. Wondertrade.

Megas as a concept. The actual execution was pretty sloppy.

Also, customization, friend safari, basically anything related to online play was done fairly well.
>>
>>27190332
>Gym design
Oh yes. I was pleasantly surprised that the first gym wasn't just a straight line with side grooves and the ice gym not having a sliding puzzle. Not to mention swinging on vines in Grant's gym.
>>
>>27190331

Are you implying that song is bad?

Great quality but not enough of it. Just like the amount of new mons.
>>
Customization
A few comfy towns
And probably my favorite part of the game was the wide array of Pokemon available in each area. Helped a lot in my process to catch em all.
>>
>>27190393
Yeah, it was the first time I actually wanted to catch them all. Having so many of them available made it seem less like a chore compared to the other gens.

Oh, and customisation and being able to take photos of yourself and have them automatically uploaded onto the site. Even if the male customisation was pretty bad.
>>
>>27190438
>can't even take photos with your ingame character and pokemon
>>
Amie, customization
>>
>>27190438
male customization was the one part of the game that really pissed me off.

females had double the amount of clothing and triple the amount of hair styles.

what do males get? recolored clothing and 4 hair styles.
>>

You mean you don't like that guitar solo? Are you a faggot or what?

Powercreep is never right.

Probably some gen 5 faggot who prefers gay ass electronic shit
>>
>>27190331
This is probably the best gym theme next to Kanto.
>>
>>27190368
Swinging on Vines was Ramos' gym, not Grant's.
>>
>>27190928

Kalos' Gym leaders and League were all jokes, but god damn they had awesome music.

Not really. Most battle themes were fucking atrocious and the game was laughably easy. It did customisation and WiFi well but that's about it

>made ev training much less tedious

All of the good things that XY did were just quality of life changes to make the core gameplay and getting into PvP better, but kinda failed in other areas.
>>
>>27190331
This theme is probably the worst in the series. It's nothing but a bunch of constant build up.
E4 theme is far better.
>>
>>27190242
3d and customization

Besides breeding mechanics and online functionality, not really.

Breeding is a lot better. And although it wasn't perfect, customizable trainers was a step in the right direction. Online is good too.

Other than that and pic related, literally nothing about XY was good.

>>27194162
>this entire post
Literally not one thing you said is positive in any way besides maybe customization.
