Yes that's what I meant with thematic battles, turn order, decisions for scripts and a nice spin in how the battle mechanics where played.Even the Pokéwood was fun and entertaining.
B2W2 were simply too good, best games of the entire franchise for SURE.
It was really fun, a bit tedious when it is first introduced but as optional content it was really fun, also top hat wailord and top hat cane snivy/Jellicent.
Then we had N seasonal battles, the largest amount of superboss battles for daily and seasonal...
Seriously, how on earth people still say gen 2 and it's remakes were better than this freaking post-game masterpiece.
I understand people love for Platinum since that game saved a bland generation filled with ingame mistakes(yeh I know DP gave us wifi but seriously they sucked, and no walking Pokémon and almost as barren Kanto as the original don't save a game even if the e4 rewatchers where good), Platinum made everything better and I can understand the praise it gets as ingame challenges are always fun there with some roadblock trainers and interesting battles happening here and there ruining nuzzies and other like them thanks to the devs giving them actual teams to some route "bosses" players, heck Platinum deserves it's praise as much as the 5th gen since both improved everything we knew about Pokémon but what game is your favorite can be boiled down to personal preferences.
Sigh I seriously hope Alola has some of that magic.
