It was actually a ninja gym, so pokemon that can make illusions like Kadabra, Drowzee and Hypno fit the theme.

also the pool of most pokemon types was incredibly shallow in the first gym, including poisons unless you count secondary typings

Give him two Onix instead of Poliwrath and Primeape.

>Agatha
>Ghost
Make her the Ghost-type 'master' when there's only three ghosts in the game. Give her two Poison-types but don't change her title.

Same as Agatha, except with Dragons and Flying-type Pokemon.

Fuck you hoennbabbies.

Type breakers are cool and stuff like Sabrina's Venomoth, Giovanni's Persian or Lorelei's Slowbro were sure nice additions.

Because of blindly following the type rule, the Elite Four in your favorite shithole Hoenn had such shitty teams with thousands of repeats. Would it really hurt to give Drake a fuckin' Gyarados? Or some sort of not-neccessarily-Ice-type for Glacia? No it wouldn't, and it would their teams less boring.

And don't even say Steven. He's actually a Steel/Rock Champion, as evidenced by PWT which followed the type rules even more strictly than ever.

Speaking about PWT, it would also be more exciting if it was given some type-breakers. Because of its strict following of the types, some GLs and Champions were given Pokemon that don't fit them at all. Giovanni with a Hippowdon, seriously? Slowbro for Misty? Come on, you know it's bullshit.

So, shut up hoennbabbies type-breakers are AWESOME.

Also, I forgot Lance. His PWT team sucked balls in all respects. Okay, it was strong but it was totally unfitting for him.

Lance should never ever have a strictly Dragon-type team. NEVER.

when you look closely in the original games you can see a dotted outline where the invisible walls are

was that intentional or was that just because of hardware limitations and gamefreaks incompetence as programmers?

I tried to make sense of it as a kid by them not wanting to use all Pokemon of the same type, and tried to use a varied type team. They were just masters of their respective type, and their star Pokemon were that type.

I actually like this stuff about gen 1.

Makes the setting feel more organic, like a real world. Why WOULD trainers restrict themselves entirely to the type of their gym leader?

Psychic was clearly the best type, they were just trying to be efficient. Hell, maybe they were even training to defeat/surpass their sensei, since psychic is good against poison.

Loreli's Slowbro never had any ice moves until the remakes. In Red/Blue/Green pokemon pretty much just had their level-up moves.
