And overall, pokemon tend have only 1 decent attacking move while having empty slots in their move set, really many have moves deliberately removed just to make the fights even easier, use status moves when they could KO, don't use priority to finish off weakened pokemon or deal more damage before inevitably getting knocked out, etc. And no fights, not even major fights have held items aside from some Z crystals, even teams are disappointingly small with even post-game challengers only having 5 with only one exception.
