    How the hell did you miss the biggest flaws in Gen I? Those being that psychic types had effectively no weaknesses (since Bug had only 3 extremely weak attacks) and the fact that special attack and special defense were combined into one stat meaning anything that had amnesia could destroy you. These things made Pokemon like Alakazam and Mewtwo almost unstoppable and broke the game way more than Rage being broken did. Not to mention the fact that if your PC box was filled you weren't able to catch any more Pokemon until you went back to a Pokemon Center and changed it, although that was also a problem in Gen 2.

    It's annoying how people act like Gen 1 was superior. No, it had so many problems. Yes, we wouldn't have Pokémon today if it was never made, and it was a good start for the series at its time, but JEEZ PEOPLE, it's not perfect! Please just let it go.

    Wrap should have been here IMO.

    I'm surprised Wrap isn't on here.

    Also, in red/blue if your pc box gets full, you can't catch any other pokemon unless you go there and changes it manually

    A lot of these aren't "flaws", but more quirks. Like the 1/200something chance of missing...yeah, ok. In the real world, things sometimes don't work for any real reason, and that's just life. I'm perfectly fine with that happening now and again. And with the randomness of disable, again, that's just the way the game went. It added a bit of randomness into the mix, just to spice things up.

    You mean Pokemon wasn't perfect on the very first try? Good thing it's perfect now!

    My #1 is limited inventory space. Even HMs and key items hog down precious inventory spaces!

    I'm surprised the infinite wrap or fire spin didn't get on the list. Mostly wrap. Screw gen 1 wrap

    How did you not mention Psychic being IMMUNE TO GHOST ATTACK(S), or the overpowered psychic type altogether?

    Good video. Although I'm not sure why you wouldnt show more footage from the games you're talking about?

    I got to say that this video is incredibly paced, with just the right amount of information at a great speed :D

    Interesting fact: If, in Gen 1, you use metronome and it goes into whirlwind, it works perfectly fine the way it's intended.

  • @MonteCreations

    I would include Ghost types. Ghost types were intended to be a counter to psychics, However, ghost type moves were not super effective against Psychics, and the the moves either did low damage(Lick) or did a set amount of calculated damage that ignore Pokemon typing anyway(night shade). To make matters worse, the ONLY ghost type pokemon in Gen 1 were all part poison type which made them WEAK to psychic attacks. Bringing a haunter to a fight with Sabrina was the worst thing you could do (yes the TV show lied).
