This was easily the worst part about the game. Shite starters and a bunch of weird ass glitches.
Progression was fine, gym leaders were actually challenging, some decent pokemon in there, hell I even like the annoying ass rival because he actually represents something.
Oh yeah, and fuck the Nuclear type to hell and back. Lousy ass speed fuckers. Going against one was literally just a guessing game of who's speed was higher unless you had a steel type.
