While we're on the topic of difficulty, I have a question.

Unfortunately, they don't really care about it as long as the games continue to sell well.

Pretty sure that the Key System from Black 2 and White 2 was fairly poorly received. GameFreak just scrapped that when they found out, even if all that system needed was better implementation
>Hurr, let's make the game more difficult by having the player beat the game first, and player must transfer the hard key if he wants the hard setting on White 2.

That was fucking dumb, Difficulty setting should've been available from the start. Although, I wasn't against the Key System for the Regis.

This is what i thought when i saw the one of the members just had a golbat and one other pokemon.

I'm sort of hoping they give all the grunts different pokemon, it always felt a bit weird that they had exactly the same ones.

The nips on 2ch complained pretty hard about XY and ORAS. The zinnia hate thread has been going on nonstop since then. Hopefully, they'll take the hint.

That said
>2 pokemon, one of them being a fucking ariados at level 30
I don't have much hope.

I wish, just wish they would take making in-game teams more seriously. I mean, we do have to wait like 2-3 years to get a new main game series and the only team composition they can come out with is 1-3 Pokemon only? And I mean this for notable NPCs, not those trainers scattered on the routes.

We can hope that his second pokemon has a cunning plan that relies on everything you send out having -1 speed, can't we?

They don't give a fuck. They'll continue to casualise the franchise because of "M-Muh smartphone gamers"
