>>29502503>Still, it's a combination that recent games are far from using.>Well that's exactly what I'm saying, after gen 4 trainers don't use those moves anymore.Way to move the goal posts. We're talking about games up to platinum when it comes to common movesets as they're the ones being used to prove it's common.
And that just kind of proves you're relatively new to the franchise compared to the rest of us seeing as you lacked this common knowledge.
>Well that's exactly what I'm saying, after gen 4 trainers don't use those moves anymore.You mean gen 5. Needless to say that gen 5 had a better balance of moves than gen 4 did not including challenge mode changes. But this has nothing to do with the current conversation.
>That's even the entire point of this whole thread, latest games are easy and former ones weren't. The point of the thread is that pokemon has always been piss easy from day one and that hasn't changed a bit. It has always been a game where the main brunt of it is just picking a move and mashing your way to victory. The only thing that changed is the length of the battles as they lowered the length of battles by removing the majority of multiple mon.
For example
Say a trainer has Six caterpie and you have an Monferno with fire punch. You're going to demolish them but it's going to be long because there's six Pokemon
Now though there's trainers with three caterpie, it's going to be considerably shorter than the previous setting as there's only three pokemon to deal with.
Basically what they're doing is cutting down on the fodder mon and copies as shown by Gen 5 and ORAS (to an extent as it's a remake) as they have decent movesets behind it without the extras.
XY is a whole different story because the 3D took up a lot of resources and manpower.>So you're actually recognizing it requires you to have some beforehand knowledge of the moves it's going to use.No, I'm saying that as a veteran player you'll remember anyway
