>>44204635Anyone who's never played a pokemon has no reason to use the board you snarky prick. At that point in the game your team are in their mid 30s, assuming you have 4-6 members. Given that bossman uses shit movesets and only ONE fully evolved pokemon, you're more than a match for him. The grunts on the other hand are so pathetic that they're getting 1 or 2 hit ko'd every single time. If the battles are so unbalanced that the opponents are barely even able to fight back, that might be a sign the balance needs some work.
It's a boring, mindless section of the game that asks absolutely nothing of you, they bridged the gap between trainers and boss fights to a far more reasonable level in later games for a reason. If there was no problem they wouldn't have fixed it. The remakes have the same problem because game freak uses 'sticking to the source material' as an excuse to not improve on the base games.
