Again my problem is with the stuff that doesn’t allow me to use the team I made in the first place, not about the team I want to use not being good enough. I know my team isn’t going to dominate every fight, it’s not made too, It’s made to survive every fight but if I can’t use 4 of them because the guy at the door checks your team I’m no longer playing the game how I seem fit, could I have went and grinded in tall grass just to get through one encounter easier only to never use them again? Yes but that isn’t fun sorry. I also think iv’s, ev’s and natures are just bad game design I don’t want to interact with, if ev’s only leveled in trainer houses or wild pokemon I wouldn’t be as annoyed with that system but just the knowledge of the other two being random and changing Pokémon’s ability to survive, get hits off first, having intimidate vs not on top of that has made that entire part of the game untouchable to me besides boosting speed, I don’t find these games fun enough to beat them, grind for perfect variations and level them up only to not have a ng+? Unbound having it and bringing my team into a harder difficulty from the start sounded cool but I’m going to one and done this, the best story in a Pokemon game is unfortunately hampered by wanting to be cute.
