That's the nature of Pokemon, unless you want them to throw literally every Pokemon in the first half of the game. Some Pokemon must be early, and some Pokemon must be late.

The only real option I can think of (aside from trading but that requires you to have beaten the game already) is offer a secret option to replace your starter with any first-stage Pokemon in the beginning. Maybe if Pokemon had a proper character creation in the beginning we could have that.

Not so bad in BW when they're made with the level you catch them at in mind, with some exceptions.
It's a problem when they refuse to adjust them based on the game however, and you have Rufflet on MeleMele.

Anon, if you're playing pokemon for the first time, your main interest would be using all the pokemon the game give you. Why do you think a majority of the pseudo evolve at level 50? It's so you can use it and have fun discovering it. Everyone and their mother agree that certain pokemon like Hydreigon and Volcarona evolve way too late and should be change. Fucking Black and White know it's bullshit but still cheated by giving Ghetsis a LV. 54 Hydreigon, 52 in BW2. Sure, there is a postgame some times, but it can be tedious trying evolving certain pokemon since there maybe no more trainers to fight, taking hours just to evolve certain pokemon.

Ti be fair, that’s part of the reason many moms were basically unobtainable.
In B/W, the Elite Four have Pokémon level 48 or so. EIGHT Pokémon (Klinklang, Braviary, Volcarona, Mandibuzz, Hydreigon, Bisharp, Vanilluxe, Haxorus) evolve at or above that level. That’s 12% of all the fully evolved Pokémon in gen 5!
By comparison, in Gen 1 the elite four have Pokémon level 56-62, and even the most difficult Pokémon to evolve (dragonite) evolves before that.

I don't get why people keep saying it failed when it reality it's still popular. The main issue was that it was event lock behind a paywall. You need DPPT or HGSS just to get a shiny beast or Celebi just to get one of these creature. That was the problem. It's popular, especially in the TGC scene, just didn't hit the mark because of the paywall. Also, why do people keep saying Zeraora is a shillmon when it's a mythical? You're not catching it in the game, it's a gift.

The way Gen V handled their dex was retarded. It already has the shittiest dex in the series, but they locked pretty much all of the coolmons towards the very end of the game. Braivary in particular is a sticking point for me because its one of the best bird designs in the series but is also
>Version exclusive
>Rufflet can only be caught after the 8th gym
>Rufflet evolves at fucking 54 and you can only catch them in the late 30s early 40s before you beat the game
All that for a mon that isn't even particularly good. I feel that Gen V's dex would have been better received if they actually let you use some of the coolmons in the main story

I agree with this. What the fuck? There's a plenty long campaign in every game. I know maybe two other people who own Pokemon, it can't be played on a single screen, and so unless I want to battle fuckin' strangers for no good reason, the game is practically done once I beat the Elite Four or whatever. Why continue all of this shit unless I'm a teenager or college kid with all of the time in the world on his hands?

If anyone could hop in and play, or the campaign was some shit 5-10 hour campaign just to get on to catching and breeding, I'd agree. But I haven't had the time to play anyone else even semi-competitively since HG/SS.

Zeraora shot to the top of porn counts in several sites within the span of a year, it's absurd.

I'd say Zoroark failed harder, if only because it didn't seem to make much of an impact anywhere. At least Zeraora drew a massive furfag crowd.

This is why Pokemon is in such a sorry state now, because of morons that want everything now, for free, and without putting any effort of it. Instant gratification is one hell of a drug and makes people into complete retards.
