I only started playing Pokemon with Diamond. My only real complaints would have to be the overtly childish dialogue and the ease of most of the trainer battles (especially the gym battles). I would give my Lucario and Charzard for some proper 6 on 6 battles early in the single player mode. At the very least, gym leaders should have six Pokemon that are leveled in a way to give you a challenge. I could also go for a less linear experience, one that let you challenge the gyms in any way you chose to, but that structure doesn't really bother me because an open world structure would also make the game feel to much like an old school RPG, where brainless exploration can get you killed by things that are leveled too highly for you.
But in the end, I still find these games to be a lot of fun. I appreciate the sense of fun and adventure these games have, the excitement of discovering new places and creatures. If the games had a better story I think they would be much more endeering, but as they are, I love em. XY is probably my favorite game in the series to date: it's beautiful, it's multiplayer is ridiculously easy to access, and none of the activities feel stupid or superfluous.
Even only Team Flare didn't sound like it was being run by a bunch of 8 year olds....
