>>54302397>Chlorophyll was determined as an acceptable ability for 80% of grass types>Even now, the warp of Chollorophyll (forcing grass types to only receive benefits from harsh sunlight) completely fucks ability designGen 3's preoccupation with weather abilities was one of, if not the worst creative decision in the first 5 gens. It was so terrible, they decided to give FREE WEATHER SETTING ON ABILITIES AVAILABLE TO NORMAL POKEMON. Every level of that decision was terrible, and whoever decided to do drought/drizzle instead of day/night to develop on one of gen 2s stronger mechanics was a fucking idiot
>But muh Groudon and KyogreThe region also plays host to a permanent sandstorm, in a game where they are slamming HARSH SUNLIGHT as one piece of a dichotomy.
This was never well designed. Abilities should not give a free move implicitly on turn 0. Fucking disaster.
