>>52863979Pokemon Pink and Pokemon Rapid Red by Jason Godwyn are your friend.
No EVs/IVs. Natures you can change from the Pokemon status screen.
They're called Fighting Styles now. Their new better names hint at the stat they improve and penalize. Open-world Kanto design, start from anywhere, fight Gym Leaders in any order.
My game's accessibility features push Pokemon forwards while most others are still stuck designing like it's 2003 and they expect kids with infinite free time to learn esoteric nonsense from wikipedia articles and spend hundreds of hours grinding.
