Yes, I don't know that it's the "main" area of the game though as basically none of the story takes place there.
It was the main selling point of the game and the DLC

Eh, the bigger selling points were being the first home console mainline Pokemon game, and the multiplayer raids. Either way, SwSh was never trying to be an open world game. It just had a wide open area within an otherwise linear game, like FF13

Its hard to pin down "worst" because the games feel so uneven lol.

6 had a shit campaign, fairy types had an absolute flop of a debut (Most of them were just retyped older pokemon), but godly online functionality.

7 had a boring af league but the actual story was neato, and making actual pokemon into proper bosses was long-overdue.

Never played 8

9 had an boring, basic bitch open world, too few trainers, and shit story, but imo the actual moment to moment gamplay was really fun if you were trying to catch all the pokemon.

Sword & Shield are definitely the worst.
Scarlet & Violet are *fine* but just rushed out and poorly made.

Sun & Moon were saved by the story and characters, but the sequels sucked ass.

Just finished Ultra Sun. Idk why people say the story is so good, it was alright but I wouldn't say it was anything special. The postgame Rainbow Rocket content seems more interesting, although maybe they're just pandering to my gen 1 nostalgia

So far the best part of the game is the remixed gen 1/2 Rocket theme when you battle the Rainbow Rocket grunts

It is so fucking stupid how slow they made Incineroar. It's literally a tiger, yet it's slower than a Blastoise, a giant turtle

I'm level 100 with a neutral speed nature and being outsped by quite a few of the enemies in the Rainbow Rocket castle

They should make cheetah pokemon that's slower than ferrothorn

The Alolan Pokemon being slow isn't bad because they can learn rock polish.

X and Y and particularly ORAS is when I stopped playing Pokmon. Like I just realized all at once I wasn't having fun anymore.

I just discovered that someone figured out which event flags correspond to which wild Pokemon appear in the ultra wormholes, and I'm so happy. A little tedious because I have to transfer my save and edit it in PkHex after every single legendary catch. But it's much better than playing that stupid minigame for hours and hours and either running into the wrong color portal on accident, or not finding a legendary after 10 attempts. After a couple hours, I've caught every single wormhole Pokemon

So, for people who like gen 7... did you actually enjoy doing this wormhole crap for a random chance at finding a legendary? Because it's so fucking awful and I can't imagine anyone actually preferring this garbage over Dynamax Adventures

I'd probably put 8 if not for the DLC and especially LA salvaging it

While I'm mixed on vanilla SM's story, USUM's is a butchered version of it that either removes or muddles its most impactful moments, so that's why.

The fact that USUM came out less than a year after SM was a crime unto itself. They're easily the weakest in the series. In terms of replayability they'd be fine if not for the literal novels of text dialouge, it's so god damn annoying. I can basically only pokemon on Emulators now because I can't be fucked to play them on my DS because they play at a snail's pace.

Why couldn't we fight fused Lusamine.
Why was Guzma an errand by for Lusamine
Why did she do effectively nothing in USUM, Necrozma is so damn lame.
Why is there SO MUCH FUCKING TALKING I HATE HAU. At least vanilla SM had decent character development with Lusamine.

The answer to this is the first gen, and I don't care for nostalgia or "it was the first" excuses.

I'll be honest, despite liking Gen 7... I did not dive into the Wormhole stuff that much... I agree Dynamax Adventures is way better... Spent hours just on that mode alone...
