Game Freak is a repeat offender when it comes to poor game design.

>gen 1 is gen 1
>gen 2 had the level curve and was pretty much against chikorita
>gen 3 had slow and frail mixed attackers
>can't think of gen 4 or 5
>gen 6 had game freak being surprised over aegislash being used as a special attacker (and all the disrespectful bullshit against aurorus and to an extent, tyrantrum)
>gen 7 had the failed attempt to curb the powercreep
>gen 8 had the Y-COMM and shit AI teammates for offline dynamax raids
>gen 9 had klawf's anger shell and past-gen legendaries being shiny-locked

gen 4 has no fire types besides the starter and one or two two lines per game (ponyta for DP, vulpix/growlithe for HGSS)
gen 5 just has atrocious level-evolutions

you can't name a specific flaw for gen 1 because gen 1 has good game design

>gen 5 just has atrocious level-evolutions
Gen V starters also have terrible level-up movepools and beyond that a lot of Gen V pokemon are missing obvious coverage moves, like the dragon trio lacking earthquake
Gev also has four slow pure psychic lines and BW1 is frontloaded with the worst designs of the generation.

What the fuck is up with Unova's level-up requirements for evolution actually? Did some programmer think that Alder was the final boss (he's not, he's postgame)?

What is a level curve?
