Every time someone brings up a controller vs mouse and keyboard, most of if not all comments will push towards the OP to “switch to mouse and keyboard” because “it’s better!”

In my eyes, the person is already accustomed to controller, they’re used to the sensitivity, and if not it’s a quick change.

If they’re going to get used to mouse and keyboard they need to:

• find a reasonable mouse

• find a reasonable mousepad for their situation

• find out if they’re a wrist aimer or an arm aimer

• make sure their windows mouse sensitivity is set to 6/11 for some reason otherwise everything else will be messed up

• find their “optimal sensitivity” many of which tutorials are (subjectively) hard to find (the good ones)

I’m both a controller and mouse and keyboard user but I find it easier to aim with a controller. It feels natural.

I’ll be using gen 4 and below as older since that’s what I’m used to,

I have Platinum and Emerald and I’ve been wanting to play through them to get to the end game to play the battle tower or equivalent since their online servers are shut down (or non existent with the GBA)

I guess I’m just looking for tips and a discussion as to how everyone plays their Pokémon game. I find that whenever I play through any Pokémon game, with the exp. share shared or not, I always over level one Pokémon. Not too much, at least not as bad as when I was a kid, but in my emerald game it got to the point where I had a grovyle in the second gym and my other three Pokémon were level 10 below. How do you maintain a balance? Again, I’m not a new player, I’ve been playing Pokémon for almost all my life and I’m 24, however I’ve always been bad at party management type games and I’ve been wanting your opinions/discussions on this topic.
