So let me lead off with saying i absolutely love this game. I picked up Y version at midnight and beat the E4 and Champion at about 34 hours. I really took it slow and tried to explore all i could. Plus i found so many cool Pokemon that i would wanna use for online battles and just to have in my collection.
There are a few things though (in my opinion) that sort throw the game off balance if you will.
WARNING MODERATE SPOILERS INBOUND!
1: The Exp. Share, I honestly think the exp. share should be given as a prize for beating the E4 its that powerful or at least make it work like a normal exp then upgraded post-game. Its awesome for leveling a group of low level pokemon without having to switch back and forth. Having this item so early in the game really takes any sort challenge out of the game for me. My team is only ever 1-2 levels behind my main at any time taking any sort of training out of the game.
2: Scaling, now i honestly think this relates to the exp. share. It feels like the exp. share was buffed last second so someone had to go in and make adjustments to the scaling. At first its a steady pace, then my pokemon start out leveling everything by almost 10! Then all of sudden i go through one cave and they are back to only about 2 under my level. Then late game because there is only a handful of trainers there levels get shot way up. It wasn't until the champion that things actually level out.
3: Post game, I understand that is the biggest pokemon game yet, in terms total 3d models, environments etc. Still i don't think that is an excuse for the lack of content in the end game. Unless they plan on releasing DLC which isn't really nintendo's thing. The Battle Maison is okay i mean its just the battle tower. The friend safari is a cool idea, thought it was gonna be a safari zone you can go in with a friend but its just boxes of grass. The mega stone hunt is pretty cool and the detective quest can eat up 45min. So all that's left is just catching pokemon and online battling which you can do at any point of the game and doesn't really count as post game content.
Just a few of my issues i had, what does everyone else think? Even with these problems i have i still give this game a 9/10
