@Frogger - Your attitude is why Pokemon is where it's at. It's the same attitude that GameFreak has; were ok with Pokemon just being "ok". Not terrible but not amazing or even great. Just passable. Then there are other developers working their asses off to make sure their franchises remain relevant and up to date with all the new tech/design philosophies with a fraction of the budget and marketing that Pokemon would get. Nobody cares that it's an improvement over the previous outing. There is absolutely no excuse why Pokemon "feels" like it has the budget of a Ys or a Compile Heart game...... that's not fair. Their games look better than anything Pokemon has done in the last 8 years or so.
