The changes to wild encounters isn't a fundamental difference. The end result is still the same, and you've still got your battling, trading and adventuring all intact. Actual spin-offs like Mystery Dungeon, Rumble, Quest, etc. are wholly different games. | ...but it's not a mainline title. Even Nintendo (new core title coming in 2019) said so.

I heard Nintendo said it was still a main series game even if not for the core fans. Well regardless what I said remains.
