"If you could change one thing about each Pokémon game, what would it be?"
Which Pokémon game is considered better or worse is highly subjective, and has no right answer. However, none are perfect, and each has it's share of features and flaws.
So if you had one chance to make the biggest possible improvement to each game, what would you do?

![Why Joke Characters are Made [Game Designer Explains]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/JuR5MpPae1w/mqdefault.jpg "Why Joke Characters are Made [Game Designer Explains]
Joke Characters are a strange existence in the world of game balancing. Going out of your way to intentionally make an awful character is quite an expensive use of resources.
From a production and management standpoint, these characters are almost never worth it. At least... at face value.
So heres an analysis into the thought process behind the development of Joke Characters, and a look at how some developers get away with making such expensive and elaborate jokes.

![Why Every Game Includes a Fishing Minigame [Game Designer Explains]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/KcWRlrw5_Oc/mqdefault.jpg "Why Every Game Includes a Fishing Minigame [Game Designer Explains]
Why are Fishing Minigames so popular? Across games of every possible genre, quality and production level, Fishing can always be found somewhere as a side activity for players to do.
Fun is certainly one reason why, but that alone doesnt justify THIS degree of omnipresence.
In truth, Fishing is a surprisingly versatile feature. It can add meaning to other game systems, serve as a long-lasting activity to occupy players, and has many other uses.
In this video, well discuss the Whys and Why Nots of Fishing Minigames, and explain the reasons why so many games and developers love to include Fishing.

![The History of the Steel Type [archeType Talk]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/LY611bWhOmU/mqdefault.jpg "The History of the Steel Type [archeType Talk]
Steel is often considered the best Type in the Pokémon series due to its excellent defensive profile. Since its debut in Gold & Silver, its only gone to reinforce that perception among fans, with Steven as a Steel Champion and many other prominent Pokémon coming to fill its roster.
To understand how this Type came to be, lets dive back through history, from before even the release of Gold & Silver, to examine how Steel was originally designed, and to see how it then evolved across the generations.

Slow Start is an Ability that completely cripples Regigigas as a Pokémon. Unreasonably and unfairly so. But why did the games designers choose to screw over this one Pokémon so badly?
Believe it or not, the answer isnt because of lore. And neither is it because of balance.
