As an European, i spoiled myself everything but the story, but i have a few considerations about the mechanics: 
- Shiny hunting via SOS battles seems much more reliable and safe when compared to the old ORAS encounter chaining method, while hunting for good IV'ed/specific abilities pokemon isn't as easy as with the DexNav
- Training EVs seems much more tedious and long without the Super Virtual Training soccer minigame
- The bottle caps system to max the stats of a pokemon is not very useful for a competitive player as breeding a good pokemon with a few maxed ivs is probably faster than leveling it to 100 and using bottle caps.
- The fact that HMs are gone is really nice, as it is the new Nursery system in your PC.
- For the GenWunners like me, the more the Gyms, the better the game, didnt like the fact that now there are just 4 island leaders
- Most of the legendaries/mysterious pokemon are found in the post league, this is not necessarily good as finding legendaries midgame gives a nice sense of progression imho
