How would you rework RNG in Pokémon?
If not, what kind of RNG based mechanics, abilities & attributes would you consider adding to Pokémon for noveltys sake?

RNG is fine as is and already leads to interesting stuff with luck management and another layer of risk assessment.
The only issue is with evasion and sleep which are banned/limited anyways.
Removing RNG would require a huge rework of high BP moves and would frankly make the game less interesting competetively.

Remove damage rolls.
Crits, misses, and the RNG involved in status effects stays the same.

I can accept this.
Maybe remove full paralysis while increasing the para speed drop.

>Tighten damage rolls somewhat so they have less extreme variance on either end, but still exist to reward players who calc damage and to allow for risk management.
>Set amount of turns for sleep and freeze. These status effects are overly swingy.
>I think something should be done about full paralysis, its can be a really unfun and frusturating mechanic. I'm not really sure what though. Perhaps make it pseudorandom instead of truly random (if paralyzed chance of full para increases slightly every turn you don't get paralyzed and reduces slightly every turn you do).
Overall though I think pokemon handles rng fairly well.

urshifu-s taught me that PP is more important than accuracy as far as balancing a Pokemon. low accuracy doesn't discourage using the most powerful moves in competitive, but PP does
toxapex is less threatening if you PP stall out the scalds, since then it can no longer hurt heatran

full paralysis should incur recoil damage while still allowing attack
confusion, sleep, freeze, fully para and flinch are bullshit status conditions, but flinch is the least bad of the bunch

If there is one thing I would personally change, I would make critical hits telegraphed at the start of a turn.

Remove damage rolls.
Make crits extremely rate, just often enough that you can't stall safely.
Instead of lower accuracy, give high-powered moves a downside. Close Combat is an example to follow, not Focus Blast.
Sleep always lasts for a fixed number of turns.
A paralyzed mon now effectively has Truant, because it's so hard to move that it takes 2 turns to use a single move.
Confusion now just causes massive recoil on all attacking moves.
Infatuation is now just a reverse taunt.

True.
I really wish Temtem had its own identity and wasn't insistent on just being an uninspired Pokemon clone.
It had good ideas.
