Yeah. A few Pokemon need stat overhauls, not just minor tweaks.
>Onix
Boost his stat total to equal Steelix.
>75
>65
>160
>55
>65
>90
Meanwhile, Pikachu and Eevee should have their stats buffed to that of their Let's Go counterparts
>Pikachu
45
80
50
75
60
120
>Eevee
65
75
70
65
85
75
Likewise, buff Pichu's stat total to be similar to original Pikachu
35
55
40
50
50
90

No idea why this isn't more common. Nobody would be mad so long is it isn't shit like cinderace getting buffed. It's a better fix than making ugly and boring megas.

Fuck it and release balance patches. Change abilites,stats,and moves mid gen. If pokemon is trying to have a competitive scene do it like the rest

Well, they've been adjusted before, but knowing Gamefreak, they'll only be slight changes and not a huge overhaul.

That goes for cross-gen evolutions as well.

They do release patches. They're called new games.

NFEs aren't supposed to be more viable than their evolutions. Pikachu is already arguably better than regular Raichu, buffing it further is fucking stupid.

Just get rid of Light Ball and replace it with a Paralysis Orb that paralyzes the holder.

What exactly is wrong with having patches for balance changes?
Pretty much every other game with any type competitive play does this and it’s an industry standard.

On top of having to add more Pokémon as DLC and possibly working on a new game. What part of this is right?

Everything. Honestly its amusing to see some folks bowled over by the possibility that the Pokemon Company might actually do the bare minimum.
I play Age of Empires 2 and we get monthly balance changes and devs are working on both AoE4 and a remake of AoE3.

Yep! Electric types are immune to paralysis! You are so observant. Here's a jelly-filled donut!
Of course Electric types are immune, spergling. The point is to make paralysis equivalent to Toxic Orb and Flame Orb. Light Ball is halfway there in that, when it's flung, it paralyzes the target. I'm just getting rid of the Pikachu boosting effect and making it like the other Orbs.

Eh hard not to agree with Onix and Steelix. Not as crazy about the boosts to Eevee and Pikachu. Maybe just juice up their special items it we're not boosting evos

Generation leaps would be the best time to redo stats. I mean mostly to make crappier mon useable. I'm not saying all mon have to be great but Sunflora is a joke
