What shortcomings?

RBY has a lot of things that don't quite work. Like the messages regarding whether an attack is super effective or not is wrong a lot of the time. Box system is clunky and you can get caught with a box full when you want to catch a Pokemon. If you don't cheat, TMs are very limited resource. The game doesn't tell you what any of the moves do which is an issue if you don't already know what all the moves do. That combos with HMs being able to permanently ruin a Pokemon's moveset.

All of this, as well as painfully shallow movepools, the special stats being one stat which made OP Pokemon more OP and terrible Pokemon more terrible, Psychic type being OP, critical hits being tied to speed meaning slow Pokemon were objectively worse, moves like Rage, Fly, Dig, Focus Energy and others being broken/glitched, status effects being glitched or too easily abused, item bag limit, 100% accuracy moves being able to miss due to bad coding, moves like Wrap being able to be used infinitely with no chance to respond, etc. etc.
