Also, I KNOW that Pokémon is aimed towards kids, but do they have to make things so obvious? Tip, GameFreak: next time you want to make it a revelation that people are related, DO NOT MAKE THEM LOOK SO FREAKING SIMILAR!

Honestly, Hau seems like such a... non-entity. He's there, but he has no real purpose.
He fills the 'friendly rival' role. Which bugs me. I want a RIVAL, not a FRIEND.

He can't be the rival if we're already the rival. I refuse to acknowledge him.

Given that, out of the Pokémon games I've played, I found none of your friends or crew interesting... they are all pretty much boring to me. Honestly, the only one I kinda like is Blue/Gary, because he was better and a step ahead. Come on, he was the champion before I could be!
Also, I knew Hapu would be kahuna. Too important of a character design.

Anyone willing to touch-trade me their Tapu Lele just to fill in the Dex entry? I'm trying to SR mine for HP Fire (something like a 1/200 chance of getting the right nature and hidden power lel) and not having Rotom yammer at me after every catch would help decrease frustration quite a bit
-edit- nvm finally got it
FINALLY
FIVE DAYS OF SRING

One factor that occurs to me is that the game world (or the part of it I've been to thus far) feels very small to me. It makes my journey feel less like some sort of grand adventure and more like a stroll around the neighborhood.

I'm sure I've ranted about it before, but I hate how Lillie is so much in the spotlight! The point of a Pokémon game is to have MY adventure, MY goal of completing the trials/league/whatever and MY achievment of becoming the best. It just feels like Lillie is the main protagonist and I'm just the sidekick that happens to be action-oriented. If she was an actually interesting character, I might not be so harsh on her - but she is boring! Even when she decides to step up and do something, she is still so... non-doing. When she said she wanted to change, I expected her to get a Pokémon and really do things. Nope, she still claims she's not a 'real trainer' and focuses on Repels...
And Rotom-Dex is annoying. Why is there not an option to tell it to STFU? I know, I know, aimed at kids, but they know that adults play it. What made them think that Rotom-Dex's type of talkingzzzzzz would appeal to anyone? The only one it may appeal to is white rappers like Team Skull. Okay, it is helpful if you haven't played in a while and don't remember where to go... but you could easily just make it so that tapping the Rotom-Dex could have it say, "Remember, you gotta go to X to do Y".

PS: Also, minor thing. The calling for help during battles thing. On the one hand, it's pretty neat. On the other hand, it's so annoying when I just want to catch the Pokémon or defeat it and at a sliver of health, it keeps calling for an ally.

I'm not sure if you already know this, but if you were to inflict a status on a Pokémon, it will no longer call for help.

I played Y for the first time a month ago, and I already have more hours logged into it than Moon. I find the Pokemon, trainer customization, and region better than Alola, though the villains and friends are garbage. I even was able to raise a whole new team with the help of the Battle Chateau and Cafes in Y to beat the Elite Four.
My personal opinion: aside from the story (which I think is the best in any Pokemon game) and the Z-moves, S/M is a letdown.

So, what's in the endgame besides UB hunting, Tapus, and Battle Tree? Because compared to the endgame of gens 5 and 6, this game feels less than desired. Is there a way to fight trainers like you could in the Battle Chateau or cafes in XY? After you beat the Pokemon league in gen 5 you still had almost half of the region to explore, and gen 6 had either the Friend Safari or DexNav to fill up your National Dex. I hear we're getting the National Dex when the Pokemon Bank becomes available to gen 7, though I can't understand why it is not in the base game.

The whole "four islands" theme has allowed me to try something a bit different from my usual playstyle. The idea is that when I go to a new island, I transition to a new team; my starter is the only Pokémon I don't swap out for a new Pokémon on each island, though there's really no reason why I couldn't swap him out, too. I finished Melemele with Brionne, Cottonee, Sudowoodo, Makuhita, and Trumbeak. I finished Akala with Brionne, Magby, Dugtrio, Haunter, Passimian, and Nosepass. I finished Ulaʻula with Primarina, Flygon, Metang, Pangoro, Electabuzz, and Ninetales. I recently arrived at Poni, have added Aerodactyl to my team, and plan on catching a Dhelmise and Wailmer at Seafolk Village before continuing with my challenge. As things stand, I keep my previous team at the beginning of each island since the game doesn't really expect me to have only my starter at the beginning of each island. I swap old members out for new catches as I go. My plan is that my final team will be picked based on the best of each team I've had thus far--though that does mean I'll have some grinding to do before the Pokémon League...
Good luck, I hear Delmise is a 1% fishing chance.

Also, in the final battle, I lost Dogmom (Granbull - whom I called that in terms of Fairy Godmother to Dogmother... but later realized it could be seen as a way to call her a Bitch in a polite way... oops.) and Joof (Gyarados). Popplio's final form gave me difficulty, cause I just didn't have anything for Water types, really. (Grasstypes seem to be cursed for me, they keep dying. And my... my Magneton died against Lusamine. He was my SECOND catch in the game!)
And Lillie just HAD to steal the limelight OVER AND OVER during the section of MY celebration of becoming the freaking FIRST ALOLA CHAMPION. Nope, fuck celebrating ME and MY achievement, Lillie must be in the focus.

I completed the main section. I'm not counting it as having successfully completed a Nuzlocke, because I entered the E4, lost two Pokémon and decided to restart when I had more time to focus on this. Call it a minor thing, but I don't like how one of the E4 is not a Kahuna - okay, they probably wanted to get you some variety, considering you fought two of the Kahuna already, but still. Kahili is just... suddenly there. I'd prefer if they got all new characters for E4 or had every Kahuna back. Exception of Nanu, cause he's that type of guy.

I agree that Kahili is super out-of-place. I mean...they went to all this trouble to put in all these super-trainers who get some ok character moments throughout it and then just waste it all by importing some nobody at the end of the game?
Still got my Necrozma the other day, not sure how that was meant to be really apparent to the player but eh. I'm torn now, because I could be done with the game but I'd quite like a Gyaradosite but it means I need to deal with Battle Tree or Battle Royal both of which don't seem very BP efficient.

Couldn't even bother to show up for the UB crisis and all of a sudden she's E4?
She's not even from Poni
Even Mina would have been a better choice and literally her only contribution to the story was "uhh I don't have a trial because I'm lazy so have a free Z-crystal, k bye"

Honestly, I was thinking that, too. It would have been weird, but it would have been something new. I mean, it's not like Pokémon hasn't had humans hurt before - BW2 has the player being frozen at one point, if I recall correctly.
I started a new run. This time, I'm playing as a guy - the one with the most dark skin and I called him Lyon. Picked Popplio as my starter this time, as difficult as it is for me to ignore the cat starter. (I don't like its nature that much. +SpAtk which is good, but -Def.)
Also, I'll actually bother with Poké Pelago this time, because otherwise, the only way to get a Dawn Stone is post-game.

It's on Ula'ula Island, east of Tapu Village and blocked off until you clear Acerola's trial
I think it's very easy to miss/forget since the game pushes you to go to Po Town right after the trial
There's nothing critical there anyway, just Psychium, Safety Goggles, and the third shrine (which is only important for post-game)
Oh and you can find Gabites there if you're willing to chain for them which is cool I guess
