With 700+ it's bound to have tiers and many pokemon are unevolved versions and so on, but it's not like there isn't room for improvement. League of Legends has over a hundred characters and manage just fine. I'm just saying that it's really boring watching Groudon vs Kyogre ad nauseum. :v:

Gen 5 got it so loving right, I don't remember another time when I was that excited by all the options available to me, and even better all the Pokemon were really loving strong and they looked cool as hell.

Being able to pick up Scraggy, Darumaka, Sandile, Yamask, Timburr, Venipede etc. all within like two towns of each other was really cool

Breeding Pokemon for perfect IVs is really satisfying when you finally get the perfect one. Any wins with that Pokemon/Team come from my hard work which is a bonus on top of winning.

Being reminded that something I enjoy is a complete waste of time isn't a good feeling and I might as well not even play the game.

That's loving retarded if your ability to enjoy something hinges on such a fragile presupposition.

That's a stupid analogy. Aimbotting and wallhacking are deliberately making the game do something it's not supposed to so you achieve things not originally intended. The game turns in their favor as they alter the gameplay to work in their advantage.

If someone generates a competitive Pokemon all they did was take a shortcut to end up at the same finish line you did. They have no advantage over you other than they didn't spend hours doing it.

Generating pokemans still doesn't seem like cheating to me because you gain no real advantage over your opponent except time spent.

It's literally like using a megamule in Dark Souls. The people who do it are skipping ahead to the pvp portion of the game and bypassing hours of grinding and progression. Everyone will be using optimal builds with Titanite Slab weapons anyway, no reason to spend 20+ hours getting there when you've done it before.

Maybe if you generate an OU team and take it to your little brother's school and beat up kids with it it can be called cheating.

I don't have any horse in this race, but honestly considering how often teams end up being tweaked during the seasons; the ability to quickly generate a new team and continue the iteration process does seem that it would give some sort of advantage. I mean I would imagine teams are pretty much locked in a few days before an event, but any sudden last minute changes to the meta would apply more pressure to a legit breeder than a hacker.


Ehh.

That's more to do with VGC being loving retarded though, but I see your point.


Zoness posted:

I have way more fun routing dark souls characters for whichever endgame goal and then pvping with whatever I end up getting than pvping with fully optimized builds but v:shobon:v.

I mean, I just don't think dark souls is a great example because the journey is actually fun with regards to dark souls. Getting a dex faith build through the parts of the game where the build is relatively weak up until sunlight blade and wotg are available is a pretty fun challenge for that future payoff.

This is more fun for me if I end up doing forest hunting or invading/gank spanking, but if you're into fight clubs at all you wanna min/max imo.

uhh how's that?

It's brought up often enough, those team comps that are almost always Groudon/Xerneas/etc.

Who has competition viable cover legendaries usually? People who generate them, I mean yeah you get 3 max IVs normally but if it's a tweak like mentioned before idk if people are gonne be SRing every time they need to change something.

Basically box legendaries are trash and only children use them.

I thought the bell tower in ds2 was the best pvp I've had in a souls game honestly, because it made the pvp experience overall less homogeneous.

Plus it could give you titanite slabs.

So what I'm saying is, make random mons / rental mons an official vgc (or at least battle spot) format :getin:

Rentals are good and fun, same reason why randoms on Showdown are good and why Challenge Cup on PO was good.

it's not really "in unison" because the pokemon doesn't do poo poo. seriously look at the fighting one, lucario just stands there like it was the civilian pose in tf2, it looks like poo poo.


this is what I do

But the trainers are literally stands and their attacks are manifested as giant nuke explosions and tsunami whirlpools and ghost hands dragging the enemy to hell etc.
