So not every Pokemon is obtainable or even usable in Gen 8. At launch only 400 Pokemon were actually coded into the game. The other 500 simply could not be moved over from Home. About 200 or so have been added back in in the DLC, but also the given reason for why not every Pokemon was in the game was total bullshit. They said they wanted to make the available Pokemon all look really nice and make new animations. They didn't do any of this. The same models and attack animations from gens 6 and 7 are reused.

Also the story mode is baaaaaaaaad.

But, it did bring a ton of really nice qol changes though. You can completely EV train a pokemon just with vitamins. You can teach egg moves at the daycare. You can change natures and even unlock hidden abilities with rare items. Also Rare Candies, and Experience Candies are given out liberally. But you have to do tons and tons of raid battles to get them in large quantities.

Overall gen 8 is a mixed bag.
