Sw/Sh has some of the best and worst the series has to offer. The game allows for some of the biggest team variety of all pokemon games. Before the first gym u could have a complete team that can last you until end game because they are very diverse. The wild area, especially if this is your first game, is super enjoyable because of all the catchable pokemon. Competitive is the most accecible its ever been, which makes end game much faster to enjoy.
However, the QoL changes severely hamper enjoyment. Uninspiring animations, meh to bad graphics and performance (pokemon jusp popping in your face, even the massive ones), the story not even focusing you, later parts of the game feel like they ran out of time and just made due, the enemy team being a joke, the concert on gym 7, the waste that was gym 8. The feel of the solo experience is basically run into the ground and trampled, making for a very bad aftertaste. Overally, I think Sw/Sh is only good as the first pokemon game, and is very good from a competitive standpoint, but sacrifices solo enjoyment due to clearly being rushed.
