How does a game’s genre affect the way its levels and environments are designed?

Pokemon - Pokemon is a RPG game created by Nintendo. In RPGs games the key role is to level your character up, in pokemon this is done by having 1-6 different types of pokemon and battling other trainers in the game, you are awarded experience points for each one defeated, as you progress through the game you encounter the enemy team which is the main objective to take out (other than the elite 4 and become champion) the goal in this usually involves a legendary pokemon at the end of the quest, which is where the risk reward is. the legendary is usually a couple of levels in front of you and has really powerful moves, to counter this you have to prepare with different types of pokemon and find ways to lower the legendary down to low health to capture it or to kill it. The elite four is always levels ahead of you and the champion always has a variety of pokemon, so you much train your team to counter all of the types. there can be risk in pokemon where you would only train one or two pokemon because for some the grinding of training all six is to great.
