The awful balance between types in Pokémon Conquest. It is so much worse when every pokémon only has access to a single move because it leads to stuff like Normal only having one family that doesn't use normal moves - Staravia and Staraptor, whose flying type moves share the Rock and Steel...

I'm going to have to disagree with you here. Modern EXP All, barring a couple of niche cases like Gyarados, is fine and perhaps even good as a concept. The problem is the games still being designed like we have the old exp share and don't get exp for catching pokemon.

None of them. Movesets until Gen 3 were, as you pointed out, garbage, Gen 4 pingponged between you get nothing and you get everything, Gen 5 leaned much heavier on the latter but still has shit like Unfeazant, Excadrill getting no Steel moves and also Earthquake 20 levels before Drill Run...

Movepools, in the main game, should go back to being just a little bit shit. Not full on RBYGSC level garbage, but you shouldn't get literally everything you need just be leveling up, give me a reason to be hyped when I find a good TM or a new move tutor rather than going 'That'd be cool if I...

I am half convinced that Gen 5, more specifically the evolution levels, were designed around the idea that the game isn't done until you beat Alder.

TBSkyen mentioned! I love his shorts on Pokémon

Ice Beam should go the way of Toxic

What fucking nuzlockers are you watching? Whoever it is they deserve a smack upside the head. Most I've seen don't use items at all.

...do remakes count as upper versions? Because if so I never play them because IMO Kanto, without the Gen 1 jank to give it character, is the most boring region by a considerable margin.

If you need a laugh go look at some of the one star reviews on the play store. Bunch of people who are upset about getting exactly what was advertised and/or blaming the game for their skill issues.

Movepools are not mentioned nearly enough when talking about earlier games being harder than the new ones. Like yeah of course the game is going to be easier when you're getting steady upgrades rather than using Headbutt/Flame Wheel/pre buff Giga Drain as your main STAB heading into the E4.

If you go to Cortondo the next closest gym is level 45. It's not about the mandatory fights it's about having to go back and forth across the map to hit things in the 'correct' order.

Like half of gen 2 and also Ponyta.

While the TM isn't all that available you can get Frustration as early as Eterna Forest, and on one of the best pokémon to use it too. Buneary starts with 0 friendship and learns it a max of 3 levels after being caught,

Speaking of Canari why tf does she have green hair on her official art? It may be a very washed out yellow in game but as long as its not in the shadow its still yellow.
