THIS. ABSOLUTLY AGREE

I actually lost to a trainer in Erika's gym because of Wrap.
And you know what? I felt happy. I felt happy it was actually possible for me to lose to a trainer and force myself to stategize around Wrap and save a faster Pokemon to get around this. I can't do this in newer games because every goddamnned thing has been casualized to the point of brainlessness.
>>26193069
Pokemon has been the same to be since the beginning, I never had to use any real strategy against NPCs, I think you were just shit.
Was it possible to have a Pokemon with leech seed, toxic, and wrap in Gen I?
That seems like the ultimate cheap combo.
>>26193069
>fixing broken ass game mechanics is now casualizing
>>26193077
>Pokemon has been the same to be since the beginning
No. Before gen 6 in most games there was at least one trainer I felt I actually had a chance of losing against.
>>26193083
Wrap's mechanics aren't any more broken than Shadow Tag simply existing.
>>26193080
Ekans and Bellsprout got Wrap and Toxic, but not Leech Seed.

Shadow Tag you at least get to attack.
>>26193087
Yeah, you being bad. The worst the game can do is "here's a bunch of somewhat decent npcs and we'll wear you down so you fug up the end." Literally the same as ever, you're also probably just too comfortable with the game by now.

shame. That would be broken.
>>26193104
Wrap you at least get to switch.
>>26193113
It has nothing to do with me being bad. And I know this is the case because TONS of other people have reported similar things. Maybe it's just you overgrinding or using revisionist history.
>you're also probably just too comfortable with the game by now
Does getting too comfortable with gen 1 magically give me an EXP share that gives 350% exp, free legendaries put on my lap, and free stones that give my starter an absurd boost? Pls tell me how to do this
>>26193144
>complaining about gen vi exp
Here we go again.
Fuck off with your shit, madfag. That's not the point of the thread. Go piss and miss about exp in some unovabortion topic.
>>26193144
>TONS of other people
The literal children on this board count neither as people nor as tons.
>>26193144
If you consider using 1 or 2 Pokemon as your party to be over-grind, then yes.
>He didn't turn off EXP share
Wouldn't make a difference since I only use one or two Pokemon during play throughs.
>Implying Latias and Latios were that much of a game changer
Caught legends in earlier games were far better for game changing imo desu

>Free stones that give my starter an absurd boost

>complains about casualness
:^)
Its as simple as not using it, because for the most part you probably won't need to use it? Maybe if you for whatever reason let the later greedy trainers greed and 1hko with 2fast speed then sure.
The "casualness" seems to be very much an option rather than forced.

>The literal children on this board count neither as people nor as tons.
No. The only children are the ones that grind and defend the exp share.
>>26193242
>>He didn't turn off EXP share
Argument discarded.
>i-it's not easier if you shoot yourself in the foot and don't use the thing that makes it easier!
no fucking shit.
Anon complaining about difficulty, exp, and shit... Shut the fuck up. Way to derail a thread and look like a complete and utter baby. There are ways to make a CHILD's game harder for yourself. Stop expecting game freak to cater to you and just your desires. Fucking entitled twat. Jfc. Go be a NEET somewhere else.

You must be having a blast in real life with all those mental handicaps.

o-ok.
