    Fair, but I don't think that changes the point much. (Also I'm not rewording all of that). They really did not do Normal/Anything until...

    There's two types of normal mons, "Just an animal" and "gimmick".* And for most of the early generations, these two categories were very...

    This is one of those things which would be easy to implement in a new series in an interesting way, and very difficult for Pokemon to...

    I think Hoenn and Alola mons are particularly likely inclusions, since both of those are the previous tropical regions. A Hoenn mon is...

    Okay, I think the problem is you're missing what the complaint is. For reference, Leader's Aces go 9, 16, 20, 25, 30, 35, 31, 40. The E4...

    It's defensible not using megas for the first 5 gym leaders, since, beyond the ace question(I'd say lead the Mega to prevent setup and...

    Honestly, I think if you can make the argument for either one to be in the lead, particularly in the debut gen, it's probably a balanced...

    The XY gym leaders are wild. WHY ONLY 3 MONS? Many of the other decisions in those gyms are good, but there's no reason for a gym past 3...
