Now that all the dlc is out I can think about doing the replay because as a whole I do enjoy Scarlet in spite of its unignorable flaws but I doubt I'll play either dlc again when that happens as both I didn't really find all the good. I'm sad Nidoking didn't make the cut, my dream of playing through a game (pokemon must be catchable before post game) with my 6 favorites without needing to trade or import is never gonna happen it seems.
Specifically here, I didn't care for it being all double battles or influenced by the cancer that is competitive pokemon but I could just breeze through it with my maxed out team so it was a non issue. Well, except for when the game wanted to waste my time and was forced to use a new team so I was petty and just perish songed the whole ordeal with a Lapras. The day the mainline games succumb to that minority of online fans who want these games to "push people into the VGC" or defaulty be difficult to the point you can't viably run with a team of pokemon you like without force feeding them vitamins or selectively fighting specific pokemon for EV yields is the day I leave this series for good. They don't understand why most play pokemon to begin with. Even with how much easier it is to get a team competitively trained, its still such a mind numbing grind that I'd rather have a nail go through my foot again.
The BB quest system's payout is way too small too since its needed for biome improvement, buying items and doing the legendary quests. Its a grind so boring I opted to clean my house over partaking in it once I got the dex completed. Once again its them trying to push co op cuz those pay out more which I am not a fan of in the slightest. Also you NEED to do co op to get all the legendaries which is straight up ass. I found the story to be weaker in this part compared to the Teal Mask as well and I wish you could have walked around with your group at the end like in the base game instead of them teleporting to the next objective.
