Because the high scores are huge pokemon fans, and anything pokemon is the best thing in the world (to them).

Reviewers are generally talking very well about the gameplay, and criticizing the lack of more Pokémon to choose, so I'd say that being Pokémon is what is deducting points for it, since they're complaining that with more than 700 Pokémon, 16 is not too much. Being part of that franchise is hurting the game, generally speaking.
