>>43936920>chansey is so dummy thicc in gen 1 and physical mons are so bad that the main strategy against chansey is to hammer it over and over with blizzards until it freezes>this means the first person to freeze their opponent's chansey is at a huge advantage>also getting your chansey paralyzed or poisoned makes it immune to freeze, making it much harder to kill.Both the physical and special split and status mechanics are directly responsible for an uninteresting metagame.
>well that's just competitiveIt'd be single player too if opponents EVER used blizzard or blissey. Gen 1 single player is piss easy so it's uninteresting too. R/B are good games but they could be much better, which is why the mechanics were changed.
Weird that you need this explained to you.
