Re: Is Game Freak "Recycling" 3DS Animations In Pokémon Sword And Shield On Switch?

Yesterday

@Ashunera84 They haven't historically cared about balancing the game very much. Legendaries are crazy powerful, with M-Rayquaza in a tier of its own. It's up to the fans each generation to make their own tier lists of which Pokémon belong in which groups. Game Freak seems generally more concerned about making cool and flashy new cool Pokémon than anything else. It's not something that really bothers me, because actually attempting to balance all the Pokémon in one group would be a ridiculously ambition undertaking and would sort of detract from the progress through the story of the game in some ways.
