Imagine all final evolutions had the same total base stats.

Imagine all types had even strengths/weaknesses.

Imagine there were no IVs.

Imagine tiers didn't exist and you could play your bro without getting slapped about by smogonfags.

Some pokemon would still be better than others because of movepool.

That would be boring.

They should make a special battle mode where all pokemon have normalised base stats.

I like the way the Touhoumon hacks did it. There are still better and worse puppets, but almost everything is still constrained to be between about 480 and 550 BST, so there's no FUCK YOU IT HAS 350 TOTAL FULLY EVOLVED or ridiculous legendaries with 680 that either dominate everything or aren't allowed.

I just wish that instead of giving us wild as shit divides like Garchomp to Beedrill, you made up statistically weaker pokemon with far superior abilities and movepool. It's a bit of a slap to the face when a pokemon has superior stats, movepool, AND ability, as well as generally just having better typing and everything else.

I'd take a Beedrill to town if you gave it something like extremely higher damage poison or some kind of bug-based damage negation, but seriously, when fighting anything of any type across the board, you're pretty much forced into using top-tiers or dying.

That would pretty much destroy any semblance of strategy Pokemon has.

I think the next set of games should have the option for utility Pokemon. This makes some Pokemon better for battling and others for in game tasks.

Train up Zigzagoons, Linoones and Furrets to go out and scavenge items for you.

Farm different berries and apricorns by utilising different bugs.

Do some mining and have Voltorbs for controlled explosions. Sableye helps you find evolution stones in the mines.

This way you can have bros that are more than living weapons.

Imagine if there were no items. Suddenly, no more:
>muh scarf
>muh specs
>muh banded scizor
>muh leftovers stall
>muh life orb sweepers
>muh eviolite chansey
>muh poison heal gliscor

To be honest, it's an awesome idea. Showdown should have an OU variant where held items are banned. 10/10 would try. It would be a completely different world since the current metagame focuses so hardly on held items.
