Champion in pokemon Radical Red

Haven’t played radical red yet, plan too in the future. Is it really as hard as I’ve heard?

If you've played Emerald Kaizo should be ok. I'm doing a randomizer right now but it even on easy standard minimal grinding is still harder than platinum

It is hard but in a fair way, unlike some older games on the NES that are not pokemon

This is not unlike Emerald Kaizo or Renegade Platinum. You have to know what you are doing, but if you do you should be fine. Nuzlockes though, FORGET IT.
