That's like if you took Pokemon and had it written by the folks who made the original DBZ anime. Manage to stretch the whole gym fight into 10 episodes. And don't get me started on the 2 episodes where Alakazam just kept using Calm Mind to power up.
When I first got into it, I would've disagreed with you, but yeah, I get it. I feel like the more I play the closer I get to full on "Unfortunate doesn't begin to describe my series"
