>>31029962>>31030021If anything, the main difficulties in Gen 1 were balance issues such as the lack of good moves for many Pokemon/types, as
>>31030134 noted, but also the absolute lack of any in-game information about most things. Without prior or outside knowledge, you don't get to know things as simple as the power/accuracy/effects of your moves, and there's little way of knowing that your Geodude's Rock Throw keeps missing not because of unkind RNG but because the move only has, like, 65 accuracy, or that that Fire Spin your Charizard's trying to learn is actually not a straight upgrade to Flamethrower.
