you're not good at making pokemon content. just stick to the vanilla, and once you make a good pokemon game WITHOUT horseshit addons, you can try adding the millions of bullshit addons.

while this CAN be pulled off, I have yet to see it happen. stop making pokemon serious.
> artificial difficulty
i absolutely understand that the current games are piss-easy, but try mastering natural difficulty before tacking on artificial difficulty. reminder that grinding =/= difficulty in most cases. the player should always tend to be weaker when facing gym leaders n such, but be only slightly weaker to the point where they think they can win if they have a good strategy. pokemon is a strategy game, so encourage strategy.

> I love me some national dex, but pulling it off is difficult. you should always reserve national dex for postgame. that being said, your regional dex should be about 300-ish species lines large.
what about you guys?
