Pokemon is really bad at this.
in a game that's meant to apeal to all age groups I find no problem with this
and I wouldn't really consider it going "out of your way" to form a team that demands a more involved play style, since the game is already so heavily decision based
Except the game isn't really decision based in game. It's decision based when you play with friends or family, but in game you literally steamroll everything with absolutely no effort at all no matter what you choose and it is really, really easy to make the game more challenging while still making it so that everyone can pick up the game and start playing.
The player base isn't spoiled. There's absolutely nothing wrong with wanting a slightly more challenging game, especially if they view it as a flaw.
