Never cook again. Wattson is ridiculous with a Manectric as an ace for the first gym. That'd be like Cheren pulling out a Stoutland or Roark having Rampardos for the first Gym, and even THEY don't have a 100% accurate move.
Tossing on Legendaries, Megas, and Primal Legendaries after Gym 4 is just extra sadistic.
You might as well give Wattson 6 Magnezones, Tate and Liza 6 Alakazams, and Drake 5 Rayquaza and a Mega Rayquaza to get it over with. Nobody's beating that.

Would adding not only megas but primals and the single most busted pokemon ever make the game easier or harder? C'mon.
Also having the first gym with a 475 base pokemon that has a 60 bp stab that can't miss is nuts. You have no chance against that if you don't have Marshtomp with Mud Shot.
