I actually really enjoyed my playthroughs of the game, despite some of the flaws.

The curry mechanic was fun for me, going around to collect the best ingredients to make the best curry, getting the timing just right.

Didn't get the DLCs so I wasn't able to play with my favourite pokemon but I think it was a good thing, really. It forced me to use other pokemon I wouldn't have really chosen to use if I had access to the pokemon I really wanted to use I guess.

The EXP share function was fine with me, I tried to sneak past as many trainers and wild pokemon as I could though so I was a little under-levelled at some point.

Pretty alright game. The graphics were, well, what you'd expect from a pokemon game. Less bugs and glitches than S&V though.
