>>33263986Personally I found the Alph and Regi puzzles to be adequate in Gen II and III.
Gen IV+ didn't really have puzzles as much as >implying memes, to eventually none at all.
Things that require me to sit down and actively resist Google are good puzzles. So long as the hints are adequate in-game.
Even as a youngster with Gen III I found it really cool that something I learned in real life could let me find new Pokemon.
