He didn't say it the right way but the level curve in GSC is absolutely terrible (Since judging from your comment, I assume it's GSC you're talking about. If you're not then I apologise). The fact that basically every team rocket member except for the final battles with admins are so laughably underlevelled is mad. Then not to mention that between Chuck, Jasmine and Pryce is a total of 4 levels difference (Chuck being 31, Pryce 34 and Jasmine 35). And in addition to that, most of the Kanto gyms are laughably weak except for Blue.

I think you’re forgetting about the overall experience. I remember playing D/P and SS. I had to run around in the grass for hours trying to make sure ALL my Pokémon were okay. I also recall having to use actual strategies for elite 4/gym leaders because sometimes the level difference was just ridiculous. Additionally, the variety in Pokémon in combating the trainers/covering weaknesses was super hard. It was very easy for me to do that in S/M, US/UM, SW/SH. All I needed to do was master type matchups and level grind with my starter. I’m not saying some battles in those games weren’t tough, and I’m also not saying D/P and SS didn’t have its fair share of easy battles. But the gameplay was completely, and it made these games literally on two different wavelengths.

So, I'm playing Platinum for the 3rd or 4th time after like, 2 years of just playing and replaying the 3ds games and most recently, Sword. I didn't buy sword, just borrowed it from a friend's sibling so I was on a constraint to not take too long with it. And surprisingly, I worried for no fucking reason lmao. I started up Platinum a few days ago because my experience with Sword was mediocre and I faced no real challenge whatsoever. I'm barely at Fantina's gym and several of my mons would not have survived if not for healing items and lucky crits. In the amount of time I took between starting the game and coming to Hearthome city, I had finished most of Sword's main story. The removal of the Exp share, back-tracking, un-avoidable battles, grinding. And this is a game I've played more than 3 times already in my life with each starter and different teams, not including diamond! There is no way in hell Platinum is easier than Sword, the latter was a fucking cakewalk to me. So was sun! The only difference is that I took quite some time to get through the story but I don't remember using many in-battle items, revives, or even rare candies. It's really weird to consider Platinum as an easy game in the Pokemon franchise. By no means is it the hardest, but certainly not the easiest! If all fails, I'm sure Cynthia's Garchomp and the Battle Zone will give you a run for the money compared to literally everything in Sw.

Pokémon sword is more difficult because unlike platinum, sword is geared toward more competitive play. The 8th gym is an example of this. Platinum while hard due to the selection of Pokémon, as long as you know what your doing you can breeze through it. I replayed platinum and now that I know what type advantages are and how to train stats, it was a cakewalk

@@williamnguyen8663 like I said, this was my third or fourth time playing Platinum alone, not including the times I've played Diamond (: I didn't find anything remotely "competitive" in sword. I could get by with a random team + cinderace. I'm not saying D/P/Pt was more competitive, but I had way more challenge in the latter than in Sword. And I'm already using a strategic team. It's way more satisfying when i beat gym leaders and rival battles in Pt than Sword. This is just my opinion though, I also in general don't play Pokémon competitively.

For X and Y, here's how I would've done things. I'd change the order of gyms, putting Ramos and Valerie as the third and fourth gym respectively, Olympia 5th, Clemont 6th, Korrina 7th, and keeping Wolfric last, and starting from Valerie, the gym leaders would have their strongest pokemon be able to mega evolve. Valerie would have Mawhile, Olympia would have Alakazam/Medicham, Clemont would have Manectric, Korrina would use her Lucario on her gym team, and Wolfric would use an Abomasnow. Additionally, the eilte four would have a full team of six with a mega evolving ace. Malva could be given Houndoom, Siebold could have his Gyarados he already uses Mega Evolve, Drasna could be given a Garchomp, and Wikstrom could have his existing Scizor Mega Evolve. You could still be given a Lucario by Korrina after the gym, but since it's right before the final gym, it wouldn't make things so much easier. Admittedly you have to be given the mega band much earlier than her gym, but you could still get it after beating the third gym, and you would be on even footing with the gym leaders since they are also using mega pokemon.

People do not even know about these things I dare them play these games on set, no exp share and no use of legedaries just normal pokemon and they will se how hard they are. Difficulty in pokemon is very subjective but in a lot of cases you have to objectively look at the game design. USUM had smart AI (except for cheesing necrozma) , all pokemon had smart movesets and they made sure the pokemon in the trials have synergy as well as what it was mentioned in the post above . This is what made this game hard smart game design. Older gens had some good difficulty as well but we need to take in consideration that the grinding was a pain in the ass especially in DPP where the games were so slow you basically did not want to grind or just battle in general because they were a slog and so you end up underleveled with probably a hmslave on your team and plus mentioning how many people started with the game and had no experience, all these combined will make it difficult, because of circumstances not necessary the AI being smart of the game being difficult in general. I am not saying older games were easier because there were fights that I have to admit were very difficult by design but under no circumstance they were miles harder as a lot of people think . I personally played DPP on emulator and did not play Pokemon Games for years, of course with the use of a speed button i felt it was pretty EZ but that is my experience with them and speed button in general if you use it in the older games help you a lot when it comes to grinding or moving in general ( and the more you explore and move more likely is to train your team and grow in levels even if you don't want to). USUM gave me a great time in terms of difficulty because I did not use refresh or roto powers and only turned on exp share to make sure all my pokemon are at the same levels I have not even put it on set and I though it was difficult due to the game being smart in general and oh boy were there some totem strategies there that caught me off guard and that is considering I have played all the other pokemon games prior and have a good acknowledge of competitive pokemon .

I usually avoid grinding, exp share or using items during battles and it usually goes well in most Pokemon games but the Ultra games could be pretty brutal whenever they wanted to. Totem Marowak decimated me to the point that I swallowed my pride and started using potions and rotom boosts on my brionne to kill it. Most Totem battles challenged me harder than Gym battles ever did. Guzma was hard and hell, Hau is the only rival I ever lost to because his Alolan Raichu caught me off guard. Even Hala was suprisingly tough with a Revenge Machop and Power up punch Crabrawler. Thing is, Ultra games have stuff like Pokemon Refresh to help you out, but if you impose any sort of challenge on you the games can definitely be harder than Sinnoh or Unova. Sinnoh only really has 5 difficult battles imo(Mars, Fantina sometimes, Flint, Lucian and Cynthia)

Yes when I arrived to the elite 4, I was underleveled (my team was between 30 and 37). I had to battle many times against the first 2 elite 4 members to put my team between levels 40 and 46 to be able to beat the game

Glad to see pokemon platinum getting love seriously though DPP are one of the most difficult games in pokemon especially in DP when you consider the fact there is a lack of fire pokemon and Infernape is the only good fire type there and the fact Flint only has 2 fire types AND ONE OF HIS TEAM MEMBERS IS AN INFERNAPE plus there’s Fantina the hardest gym leader in the game and goddamn Cynthia

My Lapras and Delphox CLEANED. HOUSE when it came to the Kalos Elite Four and "champion". I have next to NO respect for Diantha as a champion because of this. Heck even LEON gave me a hard time but Diantha? Ha. No. It's funny people rag on games like Sun and Moon and SwSh for being easy and I'm just like.....The force was NOT strong with XY. Kind of a disappointment really for the first 3D games.

my team for the elite four was a vespiquen, sylveon, glaceon and roserade. all of them were roughly level 50, except honeybug (vespi @ 62) bc i did have to grind p hard for grant. i healed twice and had to revive once bc glaceon got hit by a crit flamethrower. theyre scarily easy but they do let you play w/ tons of pokemon you almost never get to play with.

"All of the gym leaders have some of the best pokemon of their typing, for the part of the game that you face off with them." Roark: has a geodude and an onix That says a lot about how scuffed Diamond and Pearl were doesn't it? When the best rock pokemon you can get is a stone and 20 stones glued together with Pritt Stick. (Platinum is great but D and P can piss off back to the shadow realm)

They're not THAT hard. Just for a Pokémon games. I actually disagree with the #1 pick being USUM, since overall B2W2 is more difficult (but not dramatically). It's also has a better story/pacing, IMO, to the originals. They're my favorite in the series, even above HGSS.

Man I do enjoy your vids Mystic but come on, diamond and pearl have got to be higher than the new games. For one exp share just makes a difference no matter how strong of mons you get in gen 4, if they are under leveled then battles will still be super hard. And it’s hard to be under leveled in the new games. Also swsh and usum gives access to plenty of strong Pokémon. I appreciate the placing of most of this list but I just feel gen 4 gets a bit shadowed, when (for me at least) took much more effort to beat than any of the 3DS and on games

USUM is actually fairly difficult. I rarely ever have trouble with actual games (because I play tons of fangames) and ultra necrozma took me 2 tries going in blind, with a team of that had 3 psuedos in it. Admittedly, they were all relatively underleveled cuz slow xp growth rate, but still. Actually having to use some strategy in a mainline game.... pretty entertaining.
