In any case pay attention, you need to learn something today.
>Did I need to say stadium?Considering Stadium defeats your point about EV/IV requirements for each game? Yes, you should have. Of course the Battle Tower in Crystal doesn't help you out either.
>Anon, if you train your in game team in gens I or II up to level 100 for example, and if you train the same team in gen 3, without checking for natures or EV, without checking for IVs in any team, the first one will probably be much better.You're not really grasping things very well are you.
There's less degree of variance in generation 1 and 2 making battles determined entirely by the random factors IVs. There is no reliable way to see or change them.
Do you see the problem yet?
Battles are essentially determined before you had the chance to act, there are no other factors that matter besides IVs. I suppose there are items but the only one that could cause a legitimate change is the quick claw and who knows when that'll activate.
In gen 3 the plethora of factors from Natures, the higher IV range and abilities give your pokemon a far better chance of performing better than a Pokemon in generation 1 or 2. Take abilities like intimidate or speed boost for example if a mon is lacking in defense or speed IVs or nature they can compensate in ability.
I hope you're starting to understand basically the chances for a Pokemon being totally unusuable in generation 3 and higher in both the main game and post game facilities is extremely low and gets lower with each and every generation that adds new variables to the game.
>>31700694Like I said, pay attention. I was referring to the player's Pokemon and not being able to view those stats. In any case gen 3 added a judge in Emerald.
