Booooooring

What would that accomplish other than Blade is a better battler than me?

I'm not super dedicated.

Blade is a better battler than me

This motherfucker is funny.

Seriously though, I haven't even touched competitive Pokermain in years. It was too disillusioning. And when I did do it, it was via some online program and not the actual games, because fuck all the effort you need to perfect EV's, IV's, Natures, hereditary moves, and all that bullshit. Even if I did put the time and effort in, it would have been for nothing: My favorite Pokemon don't work well together at all, and putting some gimmicky fucking competitive team together got me clobbered the first several times because I had no clue how to battle people. It's nothing like the anime or even the games VS. the CPU. It's like a fucked-up chess game where you can only see one white piece and one black piece at a time.

Let that be a lesson for you, Zak: Never enjoy things. It can never be fun or simple, and when it's done entirely online, you don't even have the satisfaction of slugging that smug and in all likelihood unwashed dickface tryhard you're playing against for being a killjoy.

Wait, you spend an ungodly amount of time giving insight into everything competitive, only to tell me you don't really play PvP much anymore? In that case your whole argument's been way out of loop. I assumed you were a competent battler based on all the knowledge you offered.

And, whether in online games or life in general, my policy is: Always assume the worst of people; that way you're not disappointed when they turn out to be fucktards and pleasantly surprised when they actually turn out to be good people. Win/win.

Please don't patronize me. That's low.

No, I spent an ungodly amount of time giving insight into everything competitive, only to tell you I don't play PvP at all anymore.

In that case your whole argument's been way out of loop.

And yet everything I said was still accurate. I even provided links and everything.

Please don't patronize me.

I was trying to be nice. Don't make me regret it.

How can you be sure if you don't play PvP anymore? For all you know it's all obsolete by now, or there are better ways. Now who's bigging themselves up?

I was trying to be nice. Don't make me regret it.

If that's nice, I'd hate to see nasty. Oh wait, I already have. Regret it now?

That's why I made sure to specifically check the new XY entries instead of just randomly clicking based on generation.
