I'm not on anyone's "side". I'm just pointing out that if you've actually read the review then it's obvious that his complaint isn't that there's too much water, unlike what many claim in this thread. His complaint is that there's an abundance of water type pokemon, which takes away variety from the battles, as well as the fact that it's really tedious and not fun to move in the water. Wether those complaints are justified or not, I can't say, as I have played neither OR/AS nor the original games. That doesn't change the fact that the people in this thread are ignoring what is real complaint is, and have twisted it to something that sounds much more like a stupid reason than what it actually is.

I hope I managed to explain myself now

Her*.

But well, I did see the review and there was a complaint about too much water. Sure, she also complained about too many water-type Pokémon (which is minor nitpicking at best), but she did complain about the abundance of water. And no, it's not that tedious to move in the water at all, that is if you know what a Repel is. Which you should.

And here is your problem. You don't understand that just because you have no problem with the number of water pokemon you enocuter over the rest of the types, the reviewer shouldn't have a problem with it either. Same with the second bolded part. You don't find it tedious, she did. I find water any water levels in Super Mario tedious, others don't (we had a thread where people also expressed a similar sentiment). There is no objective way to say that they are or are not tedious. 

There is absolutely nothing wrong with this review.
