Line 35:
* [[It's Easy, So It Sucks]]: A common complaint is that compared to the fourth and fifth generation games, X and Y are way too easy for their own good. You have several strong Mega Evolutions at your disposal while the amount of opponents who use Mega Evolution can be counted on one hand, you're given tons of powerful Pokemon either for free or with very little opposition, and most enemy teams are just plain underwhelming. Team Flare's boss and a handful of Gym Leaders and Elite Four members can still put up a good fight, but they're the few exceptions to the norm.
* [[Moral Event Horizon]]: {{Spoiler|Lysandre's attempt to nuke the world with the Ultimate Weapon and killing all non-Team Flare life is a ''huge'' one. The man himself even acknowledges this, and regrets that innocent Pokemon are getting caught in the crossfire of his plans to wipe out the humans he deems as filth.}}
* [[Peripheral Demographic]]: Out of all the games, these ones are especially popular with [[Self-Imposed Challenge|Nuzlockers]] thanks to the amazing Pokemon diversity (which can be ramped up to eleven in a Wonderlocke) and the story and themes of the region being heavily based around death as a concept.
* [[The Scrappy]]: Even fans of the game agree that Diantha is an underwhelming "nothing" character. Despite being {{Spoiler|the champion of the Kalos Region}} she's as dull as dishwater, easy to beat, and barely has any presence in the story. As a result, she's near unanimously at the bottom of many people's lists of {{Spoiler|favorite Champions.}}
** Tierno and Trevor are among the series' least popular rivals for their incredibly one-note personalities and for contributing ''heavily'' to the contentious issue of there being too many friendly rival characters post-Silver.
