I don't think you know what that word means if you think having lots of mons that serve the same purpose as Rattata/Pidgey is variety.
>Pokemon isn't easy. You just need to play with a long list of arbitrary handicaps that really just makes the playthrough more tedious.
Pokemon's made for pants-shitting retards who will throw their DS into a wall at the first sight of challenge and there's no getting around that. If you want a challenge, play a randomizer or a romhack.

Fuck off. If I need to watch/read/play it under specific conditions, then it's not worth watching/reading/playing.
