@Draekos Pokemon Colosseum and XD are both like this

@Draekos (and yes, those games have story and stuff like normal pokemon games. they're not like pokemon stadium)

@Draekos Ah, that's fair. Colosseum and XD were before the physical/special split too (in gen 3 and before, whether a move used physical or special attack/defense was based entirely on its type, so stuff like thunderpunch was special).

@Felthry tbh I think a huge thing that got me this far in Arceus was like, the game telling me typing matchups.
I don't have the brain to remember that weakness/strength chart so having the game just tell me (along with every pokemon in the party getting exp) really countered the problems I had with those older titles.
