I'm around the same as you. 65 hours now. A lot of it has been in raids/trades with other players though.
I'm not so much exploring the map & I still feel the game's open world is empty & lifeless. The game needs more trainer battles in my opinion.
The story is weak & team star is pathetic lol.
Ceruledge is my favorite Mon from Gen 9

Gen 9 is disappointing to me. Better than Gen 8 but still lacking in so many ways.
Future Pokemon games need a new game plus or a challenge/hardcore mode...
