Too easy, even for a Pokemon game.
It's exp system means there is no reason not to ever have a full team, yet it is also the easiest game to solo.

You're right.

I liked it when the little brown girl gave it all up to me at the fireworks show
I liked it when snorlax blocked my path
I liked it when the sexy professor gave me a real first partner pokemon
I liked it when I made a PR video of zigzagoon and spent 30 minutes giggling and kicking my feet watching it run around
I liked it when the feet girl gave me Lucario, and he mega evolved all over the place
I liked it when the nazi man got what he deserved and I got to catch bacon birb
I liked the "staying alive" beegees team flare meme videos
I liked playing dress up with my character (i play as the little girl)
I liked when Looker showed up and we helped that little immigrant girl
I liked when "its been 3000 years"
I liked when the pokeball factory created clever mysterious world building by having an inaccessible door, bringing us back to our kids days of speculations about Mew under the truck

Yep, I'm thinking XY was based

The only reason to play Pokemon is to complete the Pokedex. Looks like you didnt beat it.

For me, this game was saved by its online features. That short period we had before homebrewers figured the 3DS out and Bank released was some of the most fun I've had playing Pokémon games, you just had to be there.

How is not wanting the game to be EVEN easier than they already can be a "retard take"?
>>
>>56520224
The fact that you think the game is "even easier" demonstrates that you're a retard because it implies you're terrible enough at the games that you thought the previous games had any challenge in them.

It's like bitching at a 2nd grade math test being "even easier" because they let you use a calculator.

Well yes because difficulty is in fact on a spectrum. Your argument is that below a certain difficulty threshold there are no differences, but there are. I'll go out on a limb and say it's because you think that because all pokemon games can be grinded by one mon that they're all easy, but I judge it by how many different play styles can you use before it becomes hard. With XY, you have to go EVEN MORE out of your way to force it to be hard, where you didn't have t make as much of an effort with previous games. And frankly, it shows how you're actually the one who is shit at the game if you're terrified to play any other way except the safe way you played since childhood, which obviously wasn't very long ago.

I'll reiterate since you can't finish reading before spacking out:

I.e, your example about sweeping the gym leaders is possible in both, but really only guaranteed for almost every playstyle in XY.

It wasn't bad for their first 3D game. However, they failed to deliver afterwards.
>>
>>56520236
to give an honest answer to this whole difficulty hot topic if anyone cares

typically when people talk about difficulty in earlier pokemon games it usually comes down to limitations. what pokemon you end up using is the key part of that like what moves they learn or their stats or how fast they're able to level up. If a game doesn't give you good pokemon to counter an upcoming challenge or enough trainers to get exp on for that counter then you'll have a tougher time. People remember Whitney as being hard because they probably didn't have a Geodude or Gastly to counter her with for example.

XY are seen as far less difficult because a lot of these limitations are removed. Most pokemon you get are really strong, you get handed a kanto starter and Lucario who are going to do well at handling a lot of things, and the exp share means all your other pokemon will be kept up to speed too. You don't have to worry about training up a weaker pokemon when they'll reach the same power level by sitting on the sidelines. TMs are plentiful and reusable top so you'll always be able to put strong moves on any pokemon you catch. There's no strong enemy teams that require any level of counterplay either, stuff like platinum Candice trying to make use of hail evasion or bw1 elesa volt switching back and forth so you couldn't focus on one pokemon. It's nothing super thought provoking but it's at least more than what XY does with its three move movesets

>>
>>56522027
>dude just limit yourself bro!
if you genuinely, truly thought this you wouldn't be screeching about the game being easy. In actuality you're just bad at the games and thought the previous games were hard.

>People remember Whitney as being hard because they probably didn't have a Geodude or Gastly to counter her with for example
no, people remember Whitney as being hard because they're terrible at the games so they wasted exp on 6+ pokemon for no reason and then wondered why their team of lv15 shitmons got steamrolled.
>>
>>56519952
y'know the point of the multiple rivals in gen 6 was to poke fun at the people who think pokemon games are about doing a singular thing with a bunch of other stupid irrelevant side activities. gonna reddit space this for impact

you are trevor
>>
>>56522150
>>dude just limit yourself bro!
Wasn't exactly my point (I said the games themselves had more limitations) but yea that is going to get you more of a challenge anyways, which is like, almost an objective fact. Thats not the normal way to play the game but if you decide you're only gonna use Butterfree you're probably gonna have a harder time at certain points

>they're terrible at the games so they wasted exp on 6+ pokemon for no reason
Most of pokemon's supplemental material encourages you to use multiple pokemon so most people are inclined to do that, yeah. They're gonna burn a lot of exp training up a new pokemon they got because that's most of the charm of the games. You could just steamroll with your starter in some games but I don't imagine just doing that is fun for a lot of people. So they don't.
>>
>>56522150
Also you pointed out the exp thing which XY changed which is evidence that yes for people who play like that XY is easier than previous generations because that playstyle is no longer a hurdle for them
>>
>>56522313
>Most of pokemon's supplemental material encourages you to use multiple pokemon
It doesn't matter if the game itself encourages me to use one Pokemon because it doesn't give me a reason to use multiple Pokemon.

>I-IT'S MORE FUN IF YOU LIMIT YOURSELF!!
Great. Do that in XY then.

>>56522385
XY is easier for people who are fucking terrible at the games and aren't worth taking seriously, yes.
>>
>>56519822

>>56522411
Then yea XY is easier on average because you can play stupider and not get punished for it. Case closed.
>>
>>56522923
>Then yea XY is easier on average
Only for people who are terrible at Pokemon games.

>b-but if I play badly on purpose I can lose in the games I like!
Not an argument.
>>
>>56522924
Being easier for stupid people means the game itself is easy because there's less reason to get smarter about it. Most people who play pokemon by your logic are stupid. Ergo, this game is easier to most people and has the reputation that is is Easier Than Previous Games. do you need more synonyms to explain that

No one said the game isn’t easy. What was actually said is that claiming the game is -too- easy instantly outs yourself as a retard who isn’t worth taking seriously.

If you like X and Y you were groomed. This isn't a joke. If you like XY then reading this fact that you were groomed should horrify you because you might not even know you were groomed. It's likely that you don't even know you were groomed because the only people that can like XY are bots/cattle so they wouldn't even know they're groomed. But if you like XY then you were 100% groomed without a doubt. That's the only way you can like that game. So if you didn't know this before, now you know that you were groomed if you like XY because it's not possible for anyone who isn't a faggot to like it. So please don't kill yourself or anything if you just found out you were groomed, seek help like therapy or psychiatry. But if you like xy even a little bit just know you are a groomed kid.

XY have always been great.

So turn off the exp share
>>
>>56519799
X/Y was amazing because of its region. Kalos had a great regional dex, the cities and towns were fun, lumiose city is still the best city in all the games.
If only they padded out the game to be similar to the pacing between the first, second, and third gym.
I also give props to XY for giving us the option to turn off exp share
