Lay off of Kukui for the ice cream. If you lived anywhere else than the island that serves ice cream, you'd make as many excuses as possible to travel to Ice Cream Island for work.

[@briasandifer210]

You know, I didn’t appreciate it at the time the game came out, but Sun and Moon actually has a pretty solid story. They really tried something different and it landed, plus team Skull was really likeable.

[@disco_parrot2508]

Finally someone who gets it

[@Lucifronz]

I appreciated it at the time. I still do. I mean I understand the complaints about the excessive cutscenes, but it was a ridiculously enjoyable experience for someone who wanted something new and different from the Pokemon series. One can argue it's still the same gym challenge with a new mask, but the setting felt wholly original and exciting.

[@lindabcarpentersings]

​@@Lucifronzyeah the first play through felt so fresh. The problem only comes when you want to replay it

[@tnm1697]

I enjoyed it because it felt like you were founding a Pokemon League but one with a unique method of qualifying for. It really kept in the theme that these games had. Alola is a unique and special place, Ultra Beasts flock to it, totem Pokemon appear (which in my mind is similar to Alpha Pokemon in Legends: Arceus), and it’s on the opposite side of the world from Kanto (or at least very very far from it)

[@TheOwneroftheIC]

It didn't land, that was the problem. There are way, way too many cutscenes, especially at the beginning of the game.

[@pac-man-world-2]

Kinda unrelated but gen 7 seemed to focus a lot more on cutscenes focusing on characters and whatnot rather than just story progression, which I think is a double edged sword. I think it made a lot of gen 7 stick out and it's one of my favorite gens because of how likable and fun the characters are, but I do agree that it gets a bit much at times. It's my favorite generation by far, but it can be pretty hard to replay at times due to the sheer amount of cutscenes lmao. There are a lot of cutscenes, but I think it helps to make the story and the world feel pretty alive. I think there's a lot more they could've done to make this happen while not sacrificing total player time due to the billions of cutscenes, but I don't mind it regardless. I just wanted to comment on that, since the mentions of cutscenes and the "why didn't they just describe all of this way easier" earlier on got me thinking. They definitely could've described events in a lot less but I feel like they really wanted to focus on and flesh out characters, which resulted in what we have now. Does it work? Honestly it really depends on your personal preference. I like it, but I completely understand people getting sick of it at some point.

What did you think about Sun and Moon vs. Ultra Sun and Moon? I think that, while it made Poni island progression a lot more fluid (you actually had a real trial captain in Poni Island instead of just the captainless Dragon Trial in the mountanis and Hapu fought you after completing the trials instead of just before the Dragon Trial), the story REALLY reeked. I know they made Necrozma more of a threat but come on, Lusamine lost a lot of threat in Ultras. Fighting Ultra Necrozma was not as satisfying as fight a corrupted Lusamine with totemized Pokemon.

[@nineicytails4287]

So I know I'm late but I have a couple of weird mentions for anyone that might follow in his footsteps here: The egg you recieve at the daycare is an eevee. Take it with you and hatch it(make sure it's male), then evolve it into sylveon. Sylveon's regular ability is cute charm, and in the overworld it'll increase your chances of running into pokemon that have the opposite gender of this pokemon assuming it's first in your party. This can cut down the time it takes finding a female salandit by a LOT. This wild Necrozma only has psychic and dark coverage in SM. If you catch a random Sableye in the cavern before the area you encounter it in, then you'll be free to just throw balls without any worries.
