also its currently like this

  • Fake Out cannot be selected after it’s used once
  • Many widely-used items (Choice Specs/Bands, Life Orb, AV) are just missing
  • Less than 200 Pokémon currently
  • NS2 version is still low-res/30 FPS
  • Stalwart Mega Skarmory

Also Mega Hawlucha can give its allies No Guard for 100% accurate 1-hit KO moves lmao

The biggest failure was waiting too long to do regional variant forms when they were an obviously good option from gen 2 onwards

Gen 5 being mostly half baked references to gen 1 was a terrible move and would've been way better received had they been the first batch of regional forms

Having 100 new mon every couple of years is one of many bad decisions made mostly because that's how they did it once and then it just became tradition that was never questioned internally

Pretty sure that's GameFreak's motto. "We don't know what we're doing or why people like it, so just keep doing the thing that worked once and never question it or change it."
