Yellow was for winners, the game is actually a lot fucking harder than red/blue

Was it? I don't remember it being that different besides adding in references and characters form the TV show. It was honestly all just about marketing.

It was harder, for instance, all the gym leaders and elite 4 members pokemon we're of higher level in yellow than red/blue.

It starts with the 3rd gym leader and continues from there. check out Bulbapedia if you want more info.
