I thought the gay guys that dressed in red and thought the world should be beautiful was kinda weird, but other then that it was much better then BW and BW2 they did a great job on the 3D a soooo much better on the actual 6th gen pokemon, i thought BW gen did a terrible job on most of their pokemon, a garbage bag, a giant boar/pig inbred, and many others almost made me quit pokemon, they were kinda getting too lame and names were kinda falling to the worst too. Ex: Garbador, the garbage bag pokemon, and Emboar: the boar pokemon, maractus: the cactus pokemon. They could also do better with the story lines and how big the maps and routes are. But once again the main story was better then BW.
Uhm...the other gens had bad designs too. Don't just single out the newer games. Seel (Such innovative naming!), Voltorb (An 'inanimate' object), Snubbull, Luvdisc, Glalie, Mr. Mime(Just no), Jynx, Lickilicky, Rhyperior, Probopass. I actually liked some of the Unova and Kalos pokemon.
But I do agree with the BW graphics being better, but the screen scrolling usually made me dizzy XD I didn't miss the slow-loading-zooming thingy when entering a building that's for sure. But I do miss the animated sprites, which were quirky and cute. They look better than the 3d pokemon models just standing in one place breathing creepily. The animated sprites did cute things once in a while. 3d pokes: *slowly undulates for eternity* If you tap on your pokemon on the summaries, they do neat little things. Why not add those in battle to break the monotony? 3d models also made some pokemon look crappy. Poor Marshtomp is fat now ;^; The only time I'd approve of 3d pokes is in Amie and the summary screens.
Love Amie though. Now I can actually interact with my favorite pokemon.
Pokefollowers NEED to come back. Especially in 3d. Why remove it in the first place Nintendo? A lot of people liked it.
Did I forget to mention the GTS?
Super training is a faster, better way to ev train. But...it's kinda repetitive. All of the stat super trainings are the same thing...shooting a ball into a goal. Why not make Def challenges blocking balls from landing out of your range? Like a goalie? Speed challenges a smaller time limit or a much faster pokemon that actually moves around the screen? All of the challenges only really need a massive attack stat to beat. Dragalge and Magnezone are literally impossible. Your Sp def and Sp Atk levels don't even make a difference.
Really hate how all the cool competitive moves are stuck in Bw2 though. Why can't I transfer baaaaccckk.

There needs to be difficulty modes to satisfy all the kids, casuals, and people seeking a challenge. Fire Emblem has 'em :I
Other than that, great game. Next one should be better since they're recycling a great gem.
