no.
The majority of the fanbase are either children or casuals who don't take the game too seriously.
For those of us who are experts, who have played the whole 20 years, who never left. the games will never be a challenge for us again.
Just look forward to the difficulty hacks that will come out a few months after release.

It's true I'm kinda disappointed with the rival, I hope he gets one hell of a team but man, after all these years of Pokemon, you don't know what type is effective against another?

As for the Pokedex, are you implying that Pokemon games weren't already fucking linear?

>>29077365
>Rival has only one Pokémon
How delusional are you? Please I'd like to know.

20 years they've picked the opposite and some rival battles were fairly tough because of it. Now you have an inherent advantage.

>tfw to intellegent to play games where the rival picks the starter week to yours

>>29077454
20 years and the first rival battle never had more than 1 Pokemon...except Hau, which inherently shits on Popplio players if the Pichu is fixed.

>>29077520
>implying that's the first
LITERALLY

KILL

YOURSELF

>>29077333
I mean how does being told type effectiveness bother you? If you're the type of player who wants a challenge, you probably already know type effects?

This upsets my autism almost as bad as when Pokemon were referred to as "Pokemon GO Characters".

>>29077254

Reminder that the level system is gen 5 based

Aka the level difference between you and your opponent determines the exp, the higher you are the less exp you get

>>29077333
Type effectiveness is after the first encounter

Rotom dex doesn't stop you from exploring

>implying they might not have had Refresh bonuses on their mons and if there was still a broken Exp. Share that they left it on

A little worrying but I never have trouble with the first gym and besides reviewers play with all those optional features on.

>>29077543
It already had his type effectiveness in the battle that he had pichu, so it's obvious that you fight him once before

>>29077686
I believe it's after you use the attack. Similar to the Persona games. It just logs things for you like most RPGs.

>>29077350
that's just attention baiting. Don't think too much into it. They want to surf the rest of the hype wave.

>>29077686
the EXP thing is good though, right? It helps put a stop to "level 84 charizard destroys elite 4 while 5 level 10-30 HM sluts watch"
