I guess the best analogy for what I meant about "variations" is what the newer Mortal Kombat games have. Like Sub-Zero had "Grandmaster", "Cryomancer", etc.

Each would allow different positions on the skill tree(s).

Maxing out an entire tree would give you access to the "ultimate" move of that particular tree. This move fundamentally alter the strategies and builds for each Pokemon. At the end of each tree the skill would be unique to that specific Pokemon.

Bulbasaur's "Make it Drain" style/variation tree might terminate with a passive skill that allows him to drain a small amount of hp no matter what ever turn, or single drain skills hit for 3 turns.

And for kids, there would be an option just to do a traditional balanced build.

But the whole point is to go out and catch them not building them
