I've never played Emerald 386, so I couldn't tell you. My guess is that 386 would be a lot harder if the same difficulty curve from Volt White applied, due to fewer options in moves, Pokemon, and held items, and the lack of the physical/special split introduced in Generation IV.

Yes, and I realize that's an issue. I am not going to grind an unreasonable amount; hell, I'd like to not grind at all if I can avoid it. If it comes to grinding, though, I will prohibit myself from overleveling the content I'm grinding for. rude  | ||

I'm watching a Plat Nuzlock where the guy is putting a cap on his levels. The level cap for him is the highest level of the upcoming gym leader's highest level pokemon. It's a self-imposed challenge so you can impose as many constraints as you want. Some may want to impose additional limits, some may not. It's up to whatever the player feels will be the most enjoyable to them | ||

In BB/VW the gym leaders' pokemon tend to be fairly high level, sometimes up to like 20 levels higher than whatever wild stuff you can face at the time. That plus the Gen5 experience formula makes it a terribly boring proposition to try to just grind through everything. | ||

I haven't played through everything in Volt White, but I know how the first five Gyms scale in terms of levels. I may or may not have to do a little grinding, but since I know the target levels for the first five Gyms, I can keep myself from overleveling accidentally. Everything from there on is uncharted territory, and I'll have no idea what to expect. I'll do my best to avoid trivializing any encounter after the fifth Gym. Assuming I survive that long. | ||
