I like how in Red & Blue, Dragon was strong against Dragon, however, the only dragon move was Dragon Rage(I think was the name?) which did a set amount of damage no matter what lol.

I claim this page in the name of Ni.

Hmm, indeed. I think I remember it as being less complicated because there were less pokemon and the ratio of single to dual type was much, much higher back then.
There are more, yeah. Wouldn't say it was much higher, though.
41% of Pokemon in gen1 were dual types.
As of gen5 that's gone up to 47% of Pokemon.
All depends on what you consider "much" higher, I guess. :x

The held items, pokemon abilities and repeat use of TMs does still make a mockery of the game at times.
I don't see how they make a mockery of the game. The abilities and held items just add another element of strategy to the rock, paper, scissors game that Pokemon was before them.
Repeated TM use was possible (and worse, because it restored PP) in previous generations too, and as you said the only difference was that you had to pay for them, and money isn't exactly hard to get in Pokemon games.


True, ok so maybe the ratio wasn't as high as I thought it was, but 41% of 151 pokemon is roughly 62 and 47% of 650 pokemon (not entirely sure of the total pokedex capacity in gen V, but anyway that would be about 305. So it's a hell of a lot more Pokemanz.

You're right, Dame. And those were the days when Psychic types were overpowered too. One exploitable weakness and it's *** Bug type. There were only 2-3 good bug attacks and 1 ghost attack that didn't do set damage (Lick).

AND (lol) the only Bug type you could really effectively use the bug attacks with was Beedrill, who was part Poison and always got his *** raped by Sabrina.

Yeah, I remember my Kadabra/Alakazam just wrecking everything. Iirc, Dragon Rage did 40 damage, so it wasn't even remotely useful by the time you had it lol.

Ghost was just awesome to toss out against normal types.

My team did suck at first, I've been working to put something better together. My team right now is:

100 Volcarona
76 Tornadus
76 Hydreigon
73 Gyarados (TM stone edge, ice beam and thunderbolt)
71 Serperior (TM toxic)
60 Darmanitan (TM psychic)

In the process of bringing up Darmanitan with a predominantly fighting/psychic moveset.
