Worst Usability/Design ever
Is there any chance that Niantic will admint that the design of their Switch game to Pokemon Go integration is the worst thing ever?
I've been developing software for 30 years with having created dial-up communications software between PCs (pre Windows) and servers, serial communications between computers and devices, Bluetooth, sockets, over SIP, and so on. I've also used probably nearly a hundred products that communicate between systems and devices. I've never seen a more difficult to use communications and sync solution that what Niantic is shipping. It's absolutely the worst. I would imagine a brand new grad could do better.
Has anyone heard any rumors of Niantic scrapping what they've currently been shipping and coming out with something somewhat usable?

Its probably here to stay I'm afraid. Niantic seems to be pushing all its resources into the base game. I assume you are referring to Scarlet and Violet's gimmighoul system, which is more likely to be a problem on Gamefreak's end. And considering their past, they're unlikely to overhaul any of their transfer systems, its never happened before.
tldr; chances are, we're stuck with the current system.
