I don’t know about that. In earlier gen I had to grind by fighting wild mons a lot to level up around the gym levels, unless I didn’t have a full team. The catching exp definitely lead to an increase in leveling by just catching and fighting trainers.
A difficulty level with increases in levels, EV/IV, good held items, better movesets and AI, or a combination of those, would certainly improve on the issues.
I think you can make it harder or easier for yourself depending on what you choose as well. I try to neglect the good glass cannon sweepers like Alakazam, Gengar, Starters and Pseudo legends to add further challenge because they can solo so easily.
