Not thinking twice!
Tbh SV rivals it at parts (especially the ending), but yeah BW is still the best overall

Did any one like it better when the series wasn’t so obsessed with the first series?

The open world aspect diminishes how good of a story it could have. Plus the team star storyline is pretty meh.

I blame the Gen 5 backlash for all of the Gen 1/nostalgia pandering we've been seeing in pokemon nowadays. So many people complained about how they couldn't use their favorite pokemon and how the Gen 5 roster were complete garbage, & ever since then TPCI has been putting more emphasis on the original generation than anything else anymore, which then leaked into other aspects of the franchise like the anime.

The fugly eevee backpack girl is so annoying...She reminds me of my most hated Persona 5 character, Futaba.

I don't mind her design. I just didn't get the purpose of that plotline tbh

You are awesome!
I guess do something kids can rely to. Just beating evil teams up isn't a thing anymore these days. Everything needs to be deep and full of development.

I'm okay with more unique ways of having stories because especially by the time of XY, the world ending stuff was getting stale, but like gen 7 still did some really unique stuff without needing violence.

Yeah. But gen 8 and gen 9 are soulless when it comes to villainous teams. Yell and Star are carbon copies of Skull. Rose Lusamine and Guzma weren't exactly "evil" either.

I like the leaders and their story more than the league campaign, to be honest.
Their "grand boss" was a dissapointing character though
Arven and the non-Penny Star Leaders were the best in the game.

I feel like the maturity of Team Star's plotline with the handling of the bullying aspect is underrated
And the camaraderie Penny had with the team star leaders was amazing
They really had great chemistry and character work done

Arven is probably my favorite character from gen 8 and 9 combined of anyone. Best character arc and depth since Lillie at least.

Apparently Mabostiff dying was a scrapped idea.

Penny is the weak link for me.
I dunno, she just feels... Shallow?
She reads a lot like a discount, inferior Futaba Sakura, to be honest.

I think it was for the best to give something happy for him to balance out certain other things.

riko will get an eevee, I'm certain of it, because "female trainer = eevee owner" these days

Kanto and shoving certain Kanto Pokemon (and Lucario) down our throats in general, yes.
But focusing on things from the OS along with Ash's original team, no.

Yeah but she was never the main Crux of it if you know what i mean?
She's the one used to conclude it all yes, but her character work isn't necessary to make or break the rest of the Team Star arc. It's more of a closing point still carried by the other Team Star members feelings and arcs

Careful? Where's the fun in that?
Blame the fanbase for despising Gen 5 taking a fresh start, at least originally before nostalgia kicked in when it was too late. Even if XY didn't have a sense of continuity, it still heavily featured Gen 1 love thanks to Mega Evolutions.
