Really shitty overworld design that makes every route annoying to navigate.
Making Eevee the only starter available then not changing its moveset to make it usable pre-evolution
Looking at you, Pokemon Normal
>>43160494I don't mind them doing it once or twice, it makes sense in-universe.
>>43160149I think to a degree they have the right idea, a little bit of challenge is nice. Some of them even overhaul the AI so it can pose a bigger threat with the same pokemon, and that's awesome.
But doing stuff like giving every gym leader a team of six all optimized with competitive items and movesets is ridiculous.
>>43161938seriously FUCK grinding, it's no fun and I don't get why some roms insist on forcing it. The official games are all designed in a way that it's NEVER necessary for the main story. The only reason we should have to grind is if we're doing a nuzlocke.
