>>52250590>Exploring on your own and encountering super high level pokemon is coolIt is beyond cool. I was exploring near the end of the world with high level 40’s and came across a level 75 tera steel Dragonite. Catching it nearly wiped my team and burned tons of items. It was a thrilling experience.
>I don't understand why they don't just scale every single trainer to be 2-3 levels lower than all your pokemon and have every Gym be equal to your level across the board.No. Just no. Trainers for this game should scale with the wild Pokémon, getting to higher levels the further out you have to explore.
I’m on the fence about gym scaling. Before playing, I thought it would be good to do badge level scaling. Now, I think it would better to implement level caps similar to the “set at level 50” system used in a lot of post game Pokémon battle towers.I like the idea of being able to fight under leveled. Even without level caps, I think the games would benefit by giving the player recommended levels on a sign post. From there, the player could decide if they want a challenge, a fair fight, or to steamroll.
