Violet/Scarlet is such a slog. Horrible performance, uninteresting boss battles and super annoying cutscenes sprinkled into everything. Some crap story about the “school” and “my dad died and is AI now” and a bunch of weird ass Chinese named Pokémon that look like shit. It’s been painful to get through just for the Pokédex entries and honestly I don’t know if I’ll finish my national dex, probably just find someone to trade me the ones I need still.
I honestly feel that the main story is the one thing they got right, it’s not on gen 5s level, but much better than gen 6 - 8. The rest of the game was mediocre at best, and raids do really suck compared to gen 8 raids.
The open world part would be a lot better if the battles scaled to your level though. Hopefully gen 10 fixes this.

(Psst, S/V are the 9th gen)
Oh shit you’re right
