Sometimes you can tell it's favoritism with the likes of Cinderace and Lucario never falling out of the meta, but then half the time they just seem to pull shit out of a hat with what they choose to buff/nerf.
There was a time where Slowbro and Cramorant were getting nerfed at seemingly every turn despite not being overpowered, and Cram got nerfed so hard it was barely usable until relatively recently.
And this patch nerfed Charizard's ranged set even though it was perfectly fine when it's the melee set that needed buffing cuz they made it garbage a long time ago.
Every other mon seemed to release in either a busted or really underwhelming state, with it often taking months for them to get balanced somewhat properly.
Plus the buffs/nerfs rarely actually addressed the actual underlying problems with mons and would often just change numbers instead of reworking stuff.
It's clear TiMi has no idea how their game is actually played.
