volcarona was never intended to be a pseudo
it's one of those two-stage mons that you have to struggle to train the first stage before being rewarded with a broken final evo
gyarados
milotic
golisopod
farfetch'd

To be fair, they're difficult to find, only available post game. Plus, I think no trainer use them or their evolutionary line before you battle Drake and Steven so you are hardly aware of their existence

Farfetch'd isn't a struggle to train or evolve.

My Farfetch'd was usable throughout the whole game, even during the stadium battles. Getting three crits in during a battle wasn't even a hard requirement, and the only reason I never bothered to evolve her earlier than post-game was that there was never a need to.

Remember when you had to go to a specific floor of a deep cave to have a decent encounter rate of a rare Pokémon?

Now it’s just
>Okay this route you see everyday has a 1% chance of this rare Pokémon in this specific weather

It sounds like a chore instead of a reward
