Game Freak can't balance a game for shit.

SM was notably more difficult than normal for the seires. That was a great change which made me realize how much benefit it can bring.

>>33245662
Not at all. Shit was a joke, even with a team of Alolan shitmons and no Z-Moves. Like every game's single player.

>>33245648
You're retarded if you blame Gamefreak for using Legendaries at the League and finding it too easy.

>>33245649
To be fair Emerald sets a high bar as the best game in the franchise

>>33245687
I used Groudon at the league in the original game and it was far harder than ORAS WITHOUT using legendaries. So no, legendaries have nothing to do with it you faggot.

>>33245810
how did you struggle with groudon
how bad are you

>>33245960
Level gap and the fact that Groudon has a slower leveling rate and is barely EV trained compared to the rest of my team. Legendary doesn't automatically equate to good, smartass.

>>33245638
other mons have stopped my primal Groudon before, its not too hard if you're not trying to be obvious with water, its primal kyorge that's hard. Hits fast with a full hp and drizzle power water spout. Whatever doesn't outright resist it is getting a hole punched in it.

>>33245971
he's a good tank though, back then he stood up to most attacks that weren't water pretty well, usually eruption KO'd anything right away, and if it wasn't leveled by then flamethrower usually did the trick. his SP atk was huge so hardly anything handled it well if it got a hit off.

>>33245971
kyogre 2-shots everything with surf. x-items are literal easy mode here.

>>33245638
Personally, I think it's actually a great way to make an easy-mode of sorts for noob players.

>>33245982
>Eruption
I'm using a fucking lv45-lv49 Pokemon at that point in the game dude.

>>33245999
If you read, that's why I said flamethrower. Even flamethrower hit hard on shit that wasn't too leveled above it and didn't resist it. I think you just used your's in a dumb way man. My groudon carried me in my first emerald league. Didn't spend too much time training it either, only around level 55 or so.

>>33246008
>level 55

then that's why it carried you, you wasted time grinding to make up for being bad at the game. My Pokemon were in their lv40s and I still beat it. And it was still harder than ORAS because the game didn't baby me with an EXP share and megas the entire game.

>>33246012
Not him, but have you considered that you may be taking the boss rush of a literal childrens' game a bit too seriously?

>>33245693
Hgss are better

>>33245662
is this a joke post? the game tells you what moves to use, most trainers have just one pokemon, the only trainer I had trouble with was matey boy professor fella after beating the elite 4 because the water starter near enough swept my team if not for stalling out with wishiwashi and hyper potions

>>33245638
It introduced the dexnav

I can forgive an easy main game just to have access to the dexnav

I fucking wish they'd just give use the vs seeker back though, don't know why they hate that gorgeous little thing so much

>>33245662
No it fucking wasn't. Stop posting this shitty meme, SM was easy garbage.
