>Complaining about difficulty in the main storyThey were always piss easy from gen 1, these are games designed for children to play on a basic level. The real meat of the game has always been the postgame and competitive play.
Also the EV system changing in the leap from gen 2 to 3 means your Pokemon were overall weaker, stat-wise.
