>There hasn't been a single good Pokemon game everThe only reason Pokémon was so popular was because it was the easiest multiplayer game to pick up and play for the Gameboy. The whole implementation of everything on said game not only could've been done way better, but most of it demonstrates a strong lacking in game design knowledge.

and from what we've seen, Game Freak isn't good at designing boss Pokémon either, they're just officials that you beat and tell you "You've moved on to the next level". It probably would've been more interesting if everything in certain chunks of the game was roughly the same level and you leveled up a lot slower (even slower than the gen 5 system) and you could fight like 4-5 bosses in any order. Personally, I would've just preferred something like FF1: beat the first guy then only enter the boss dungeons if you feel like it.
