sure, but gen 1 is still piss easy. all of the pokemon games are easy. some of them just happen to be easier than others. this is not a problem, if anything it just means you can more reasonably clear the league with less optimal teams, which is objectively a good thing.
if you're playing pokemon for the challenge, you're probably a literal toddler. pokemon is easy by design

yes. like how zinnia is the final boss of oras, not steven. the game ends when the campaign ends, everything after that is postgame. GSC/HGSS's actual campaign stretches until Red, and after that is when it becomes "do whatever you want I guess"
>>57900533
GSC/HGSS has so much content that people consider its halfway point to be equivalent to where most pokemon games end. it has twice the content of a regular pokemon game

If anything, "twice" is an understatement. I'm still learning shit about HGSS to this day, no other Pokémon game even comes close to the amount of content it has
Also, it's certainly interesting how every post seething about HGSS's superiority is more than a minute apart, and how there hasn't been a screenshot of the post calling out the samefaggotry yet. I wonder why that could be.

I mean, yeah. It still wasn't that hard. And even then, saying "the game is harder whenever you actively avoid using mechanics the game gives you because I personally consider it cheating" doesn't exactly make your point look very strong.

Honestly, difficulty shouldn't really be evaluated at all in Pokémon games, because none of them are hard. Difficulty doesn't affect the quality of a Pokémon game, unless it's a shitty fangame that cares more about being hard than being fun. With actual Pokémon games, they're all relatively easy anyway, some moreso than others, and for a series built around making a team that's truly yours, regardless of how suboptimal it may be, that's a good thing. If Pokémon were hard, everyone would use the same team of powerhouses. As is, only exceptionally boring people do that.

I'd argue there's easier ones, but it literally does not matter to me. A game isn't good because it's hard, a game is good because it's good. I'd say USUM is probably the least easy Pokémon game, and I thought it was pretty shit. Platinum is generally considered to be one of the less easy games, and it's my second favorite.

Morty's Gengar will likely be faster than most of the pokemon you'll have by that point. It can put your pokemon to sleep quickly. In GSC it can heal with Dream Eater. In HGSS its Shadow Ball works off its much higher special attack, hitting like a truck.

No, that's just teambuilding. That's fair play. Needing X items is one thing, using the battle system in its purest form and saying "yeah morty should really have something better for normal types" is an entirely fair assessment.

That is true, yes. They're given to you in the game. With that said, I do feel like what >>57900621 said is true to an extent. If we absolutely have to judge the difficulty of a Pokémon game, it should be done in its purest form, relying only on pure teambuilding. "if you use items in battle, Whitney becomes easier than Clay is without using them" is disingenuous.
I dont necessarily think HGSS is the hardest Pokémon game in the world or anything, I would agree it's on the easier side (although that may be because I know it like the back of my hand) but I would absolutely say that BW is easier.

I've probably clocked a good amount of time in Scarlet and Sword. Only ones I didnt really play alog after beating them was White 2, Sun, and Ultra Sun (Had to stop playing this one for a while before beating. It just got really boring) I also dont think I couldnt play Legends Arceus for very long after finishing the Dex and getting Arceus. Weird it never got any DLC or anything. Feels very bare even when compared to Scarlet and Sword which are mostly held up by raids and online battling.
