I'm not sure if the gen 6 plot was quite as bad as the RSE ones (well, in terms of execution - rival eco-terrorists is a great idea but the leaders were utterly dumb), but that's a fair enough thing. Lysandre was not very good in managing Team Flare, and when the final plot finally occurred it was very condensed. Three times fighting him in that time was too much, and him killing himself - and the lack of reaction by anyone about it right after - was poor. The parade felt much more like an afterthought.
