>>20247111>Like fuck there's so many poemon out there that wo't ever be used simply because of how shit the stats are.I think this problem stems from the fact that Pokemon is both a competitive strategy game and a JRPG at the same time. Thus, they had to consider the matter of power scaling. So we end up with things like how early they become available, when they reach their final evolution and their experience curve all factored into their endgame relative power.
It would have been nice if GF had put a little more thought into game balance for multiplayer, but they didn't. That's why tier systems exist; they give weaker Pokemon a venue in which they can flourish.
