>>47798402>>Introduced pointless babies for no good reason other than extend the grindBabies are not pointless, especially the Gen 2 ones. They add flavor and lore, they encouraged breeding (an entirely new mechanic) as a way to get new Pokemon, they allow for using these mons in early game better, and Tyrogue linked two seperate Pokemon families into one.
>>Only good mons are Steelix, Skarmory, Quagsire, Gligar and Sneasel, with half of these being exclusive or a hassle to get.That's just blatantly untrue except by modern standards, but why are you criticizing Gen 2 for things that happened years and years later?
>>New types introduced don't even make an appearance ingame (cryptid way to get umbreon, murkrow, sneasel and houndour are post-league)Steel appears plenty, only Dark type appears a bit late game.
>>Flat out shit and designs (pineco, polytoed, lugia, meganium)lmao
>>Boring single type startersNothing wrong with this, especially considering that the only other starters at the time weren't mono-type aside from Blastoise.
