The point i was trying to make wasn't "This game is easy" the point is "This fight is super easy despite being clearly set up to be hard." Anyone with a shred of competency would immediately realize "Hey, maybe I shouldn't give the final boss a tera rock glimmora in the back", they would think "I should have this really important final fight lead glimmora to punish switching around for type matchups and have the pokemon that benefits from having the rest of the team dead only come out after the team is dead". The fight would still be easy, on account of having such wonderful OU staples as veluza, gogoat, and avalugg (anything with fire-fighting coverage would sweep the entire fight), but it would look like the team had effort put into the most important fight in the game. I'm not complaining about the difficulty. The lack of difficulty is an example I used to show how little gamefreak cares about what they put out.

glimora was the ace pokemon, and ace pokemon go in the back. also, bold to assume game freak knows the importance of hazzards, as basically all official tourneys are in doubles, a format where hazards are less important.
but the biggest freshwater lake is lake michigan-huron (it's one lake)
princess peach showtime is a bad game even if it's meant for kids, especially since it has no multiplayer which is a staple of baby games
for instance my younger brother has beaten only one pokemon game, LGPE, and my being able to hop in with local multiplayer helped with that
or the same developers made Kirby's Epic Yarn, also an extremely simple game but one that can be played together

In the older games, it was pretty consistent that if the NPC had a hazard user, it would be in the lead slot. Off the top of my head, this includes Emerald Steven, BW Cheren, Wikstrom, Molayne, and USUM Giovanni. Geeta breaking that trend is fair criticism.
Plus, glimmora is a terrible ace anyways. Ace pokemon, especially champions, normally have some sense of rarity or strength. Pokemon like Cynthia's garchomp or Steven's metagross fit this bill perfectly. They also tend to be incredibly potent offensive mons. Glimmora is neither of those, but unfortunately there are ABSOLUTELY no members of geeta's team that fit this archetype. None at all. Not a single one. Definitely not.
MAMP
MAMP!
So make the ace Pokémon not glimmora and something different? Also considering hdb was made I doubt gf is entirely unaware about hazard viability.
1. Glimmet is extremely rare outside of Area Zero and you can’t access Area Zero at that point in the game so most people will have no idea of what a Glimmora is or is capable of
2. Glimmora has 130 base special attack??
there should be a "im afraid of any weather" lane, so the ppl afraid of snow, rain, wind, etc can have whatever and everyone else can just get to work or wherever else we made need be lol.
i dont even drive crazy but a lil rain dont mean we need 45 on the highway lol. snow? sure ofc but by god sometimes.... lol.

Sunny weather is stupid and dumb strong wind/rain is so much better oh my god
Man I love the sun. Everyone's around me burning up whilst I can flex my melanin
this is the post that starts ww3, I am calling it now.
anyways, I hate the sun, but I hate rain more, and windy rain is an affront to God.
ok kyoger
i didnt even consider this angle
the average minnesotan winter would instantly kill someone from the coast. negative 50 windchill doesn’t play around
anyone who goes to Spokane instantly feels the wrath of all the weather in the world. that place scares me
guy posting in the wrong thread
spokane is a farce invented by big eastern washington to try and convince the world that there is anything important east of the cascades
this comforts me. thank you.
An awful person making a great argument is infinitely worse than a good person making an awful argument
Like if Steve1989 said that Shrek 3 is a great movie, I mean I would be taken aback a bit, but I wouldn't mind. If Skydoesminecraft now made the argument that the original Puss in Boots had a great plot twist, man, I would be really, really bothered by that
