I kept going back to this game until I caught the first fairy island guardian Pokémon thing, but I don’t know why. I’ve played through 3 Pokémon games now, and my tactic has always been to just over level my starter by fighting every trainer I can until it can basically one shot everything. I see that there all these types and moves and strategies, but it just doesn’t seem like you need any of them. I think I’ve had more fun going through online Pokédexes post-game than actually playing through this.
Is there an older Pokémon game with a hard mode or just one that encourages more strategic thinking against the AI, or is that what the multiplayer is for? I like to avoid competitive games that have any kind of grinding associated with them.
Also I find that I am averse to mixed type Pokémon and I’m not sure what that says about me as a person. I picked Rowlet in part because it already had two types and I figured I wouldn’t be blindsided by a new lame type on the third evolution…
