There was a massive Game freak data leak a few months ago that leaked source assets and code from a bunch of the older games, and there were some lore-type folk stories about Pokemon. (I think based on Japanese folk legends?) There was a particularly weird one (putting it nicely) about a typhlosion that married a human woman

My bad I should’ve clarified on the half-serious part, I actually like chikorita and tepig :sigh:

Starting some flame wars with the half-serious takes tho

Hardest from an initial playthrough standpoint might honestly be diamond/pearl because they had pretty bad level scaling throughout a lot of the game. Once you’ve played through it once it’s easy to prepare for the difficult parts though.

From a nuzlocke standpoint ultra sun/moon are also pretty hard because of the necrozma fight but again when you know it’s coming it’s honestly not that hard to prepare for.

I’ve never played through regular BW2 on hard mode but I’ve played through a sizeable portion of the drayano hacks (blaze black 2/volt white 2) in hard mode and those were pretty challenging.

JavaScript: They were so focused on whether or not they could that they forgot to consider whether or not they should

Or just use a dictionary/hashmap if it’s all in the same program
