Thankfully most of us aren't emotionally invested in BW due to previous mishaps in this saga, that we didn't have high hopes to begin with.

I don't know, the saga as a whole started off fairly strong but when the entire Team Rocket vs Team Plasma Arc got canned it started to somewhat weaken, but even then it was still decent. It was only when they introduced Cameron that the show started to suck hard.
I think the writers were trying to invent an "Anti-Richie" but ended up going in the exact opposite direction of awfulness when they came up with that guy.
Kanto: 8
Johto: 7.5
Hoenn: 7.5
Sinnoh: 9
Unova: 2
The Unova League did not feel like a League. Short battles, an Axew filler episode? Ash losing against a Trainer of 5 Pokemon, and the regression? All of BW has been a disappointment to me, so I had been looking forward to the League for some time. But it let me down completely, and left a foul taste in my mouth.
I want to think that the writers were so busy preparing Episode N that they had no choice but to reduce their workload for the League. I WANT to think that way so it might feel justified - even just a teensy bit.
Of course, this depends on how well Episode N is written out. If Episode N turns out to be a huge hit, then we could just force ourselves to think everyone on the crew had been so busy with N - because it was N. If they messed up the N saga... then we might as well lost hope for the anime team.

I see your point. The thing was minus Pikachu this was Ash's Unova Pokemon line up:
3 fully evolved Pokemon: Levanny, Unfezant, Krookodile
3 mid-stage Pokemon: Boldore, Pignite, Palpitoad
3 un-evolved Pokemon: Scraggy, Oshawott, Snivy
I mean really this league was doomed to fail from the start. Compared to Kanto he had (aside from Pikachu):
1 fully evolved Pokemon: Charizard, Kingler (started as Krabby though), Muk
1 mid-stage Pokemon: Pidgeotto
2 unevolved Pokemon: Bulbasaur, Squirtle
Neutral: 30 Tauros (they don't evolve nor were they used during the league)
I mean seriously I am not excited for the N episodes ONLY because BW has hyped up so many different specials; TR vs. TP episodes (cancelled due to earthquake), multiple Don George tournaments, BW Season 2 which was what many fans hoped would "revive" this saga due to the return of DP veterans Cynthia and Dawn only for that to be botched up mercilessly and now this league...
Either every crappy piece of BW was due to the magnitude of greatness these new episodes are meant to present or the writers are going to screw it up completely. Charizard is said to return and I'm afraid...
BW has "killed" the great reputations of old characters so far and I'd hate to see that done to my favorite fire breathing dragon...
