Pokémon Legends Arceus

Pokémon Legends Arceus is easily my second favorite Pokémon game. Just finished the Pokédex 1/23/2026, working on the Path Of Solitude requests. My team is:

Pokémon Violet

...did not live up to the hype. It almost feels too open world, where technically you can go anywhere but you're blocked by higher level Pokémon, but there's no indication which way you can go, and there's not really smooth progression?? I have no clue whether I accidentally wandered into a later game area, or if I just need to grind some levels. I do enjoy Fidough and Paldean Wooper though, peak Pokémon.
