Out of everything that went down with this one's development, the biggest thing keeping me from remaining interested is how easy they got. Like, no one in Sun/Moon had more than three Pokemon on their team.

Wish they just had a hard mode that bumped up enemy levels/amount

The first streamer to beat the game did so my avoiding all random and trainer battles, and managed to beat the game in 14 hours and was one hitting basically everything, even gigantomax gym leader things.

Well, that's a hard no for me, then

I wish a game like Pokemon but for adults came out...

Apparently, it's even easier and more hand-holding than Sun/Moon were.

Have you heard of the Shin Megami Tensei series? It's basically what you're asking for.

What's the hardest mainline Pokemon game?
1st gen is fine with some limitations.
2nd gen is super easy.
3rd I skipped.
4th gen is easy with 1 strong dude, harder with an equally leveled team.
Rest didn't make a lasting impression on me.

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon series is quite challenging, even in the main storyline.

They've always been piss easy though?
The older games weren't afraid to challenge its players, though.

Now, they seem to have removed all the problem-solving out of the games out of fear of alienating children.

Has Atlus even heard of SMT? Feels like it's been ages since we got an SMTV announcement yet still no release date or window in sight.

I was 6 when Pokemon came out. I'd say they were perfectly suitable for my age at the time, lol

And I get that they'll always be "kids" games, just sucks that you have such limited options for this kind of game

Easiest to hardest

8 > 6 = 7 > LG > 2 > 3 >Gen 3 Kanto > 5 > 4 > 1

8,6,7, and Let's Go are effortless, except kahuna battles, which are poorly thought out

2,3,Gen 3 Kanto, 5 are easy

4 is the hardest of them all, but is still easy

1 is mainly hard simply because things are either trash or super op, and limited trainers

If you seek challenge from Pokemon games, you'll have to seek out hacks lol
