I really quite liked Gen 7. Alola is very easily the most interesting and pleasing region in Pokemon. Very pretty, very unique. The island challenges and Kahunas instead of gyms was a super cool shake up of the standard Pokemon formula even if they were simply Pokemon gyms just reskinned. The biggest drawback is how ungodly long the handholding is. It feels like a four hour tutorial for an eight hour game. Which is almost unforgivable.

Still Alola is so damn charming I enjoyed all the time I spent there
