>>43429098I play the games the most challenging way I can: no items, no TMs, random nature, exp. off, until the E4. I usually don't need it but it's fun to stuff my team with TMs and a held item before the E4.
I don't see how the game posses any challenge with optimal EVs, items, and TMs. Without them it's already a breeze. I still support people playing the game however makes them happy though.
