Is Pokemon the single worst balanced highly played 'competitive' video game?
This isn't like a belly-aching post. Its an actual question.
To call Pokemon 'balanced' is offensively incorrect. The proper thing to ask is if its ok being intentionally designed as unbalanced? Is Game Freak in any form 'obligated' to balance the game?
They seemingly do apply buffs/nerfs at an almost random pace, and typically introduce new powercrept mechanics that are almost always best applied on already strong Pokemon.
