Violet, as was arceus, is full of half baked good ideas, while it does have ways to modernize the pokemon formula those are clearly undermined by the short development time and the need to release the game byannualy.

Even with that it has some of the good changes from arceus, while missing the better ones, making for a fun time if you're able to overlook the various and various glitchs and not finished assets. In the end, it's fun to catch' em all, and what could have been a great step forward given the correct time, ends up becoming just another pokemon game.
