Pokémon Radical Red and the Lack of a Watsonian Explanation

Alright, so I wanna preface this by saying that I by no means hate this hack, and I'm not trying to diminish its undeniable effect on the community, for better or for worse. This is purely my opinion on the absolutely dogshit story and the fact that there's zero environmental storytelling because every trainer has to pose a challenge.

The very first non-rival boss battle, Falkner, has a Wattrel with Volt Absorb even though it's more in-character for him to have Wind Power due to his flavour text in his Johto battles when he's down to his last Pokémon.

Brock used to have a Vulpix, a nice nod to the anime, only for him to then have a Varoom instead for... what reason??? Why??? Like. It counters Grass, I guess, but it's also got STAB that's resisted by Water and is quadruple weak to Ground, weird ass fucking choice all around.

Misty says her strategy is "all-out offense with Water Pokémon" and they gave her a fucking Clodsire??? A non-water wall???? Like, if they wanted her to have stall so bad, Alomomola was right there, she's shown to be a romantic in both the games and the anime, it would make more sense. But no, Clodsire.

Alolan Raichu is too cute for Surge, and he in particular doesn't seem like the type to use something so ““unmanly””, not to mention it's a regional variant and he just... Seems too patriotic for Alolan Raichu specifically(I hate Surge and love Alolan Raichu, hope this helps).

Erika suffers from this the most imo, as her eepy ass not only gets Rillaboom, the loud drummer, but also Hisuian Electrode, a loud, fast round thing that explodes(which would suit Surge more). Like, just give her Amoongus. For the love of fuck, just give her the damn mushroom.

Why the shit does Chuck have Breloom and Gallade?? He canonically uses angry, bulky looking Fighting types(Poliwrath and Primape), instead of an Elegant knight and a stally mushroom.

Why the FUCK would you give Giovanni Kangaskhan as his ace. Like, in any capacity???? Is it a nod to the theory? Is it debunking the theory? I don't know, fuck you Parental Bond go brr! Like. This decision makes me so irrationally angry because Mega Evolving Garchomp(which he already has) would make much more sense. Giovanni's canon team and calculated actions show that he's clearly More into slower, bulkier builds(Rhydon, Nidoqueen), and so the loss of speed is perfectly In-character for him.

Also, why include May at all, she has no purpose other than to give you a Torchic, which you can get through like all of the city eggs, plus the fire type shard eggs, and that's if you didn't choose it as your starter???

Like. She's never seen again??? And then Brendan gives the player a Destiny Knot??? For reasons????

If that's the culmination of Brendan's """arc""", why wasn't it Lyra/Ethan, whoever they hc as the Daycare Couple's grandchild? It'd make more sense for them to have, and give, the Destiny Knot.
