>Mixed attackers were on par with physical and special sets since every stat could be fully DV trained
>Normal types were jacks of all trades with access to a ton of TMs and good utility like Explosion and Hyper Beam while elementals were mostly limited to moves of their own type

>Fire and Ground type Pokemon being found in the field instead of needing to shoehorn in volcanoes and deserts
>Ice being treated as an add-on to deep sea water types instead of needing to shoehorn in an ice dungeon (Seafoam Islands didn't have any ice types in it until Yellow)
>Shitmons like Arbok and Victreebel were balanced out against top tiers like Nidoking and Venusaur thanks to access to Wrap
>Psychic was never a broken type; top tier threats like Starmie and Exeggutor didn't even run Psychic
>Dragon was never a broken type; Dragonite didn't run Dragon STAB and was UU despite having the second highest BST in the game after Mewtwo
