Why does GameFreak refuse to make an asshole rival like

>>26332654
Because kids are too sensitive these days. Back in our days we went outside and got into fights and played in the mud. Now kids cry over mean texts and their friends are the nice ole pewdiepie who never does them wrong.

That's why.

pls no i already get bullied enough at school for being fat and autistic ;_;

If Game Freak made a rival that was anything but really friendly and easy to beat, smartphone kids would flush their 3DS's down the toilet then have a seizure and die.

>asshole rival like Blue or Silver
I remember how I beat the shit out of them when I was young.
Where is the satisfaction of beating a friendly pussy that has no self-confidence?

>kids these days
Do you ever listen to yourself?

Do you?

Why does everyone like Silver? His lines made him sound like a whiny little bitch. Like a bully in kindergarten.

I just want rivals who won't kneel before my presences and give me some challenge.

None of this licking my boots nonsense.

I'd rather have a rival that's actually competitively a rival with an OP team and shit. Being an asshole just makes them an asshole not a good rival.

All I want is a cute smug girl

There is something that feel good about when they say something like "You just got lucky, fag".
I just want edgy rivals to come back. Black/white 2 Is the closest we'll get it seems.

Well silver had a reason to be a cunt. No other rival has sence been the supposed child of a team boss.

This is honestly retarded. Kids get upset when theyre picked on. I did, you did, your dad did and so did his dad. But go on thinking that not being a millenial somehow means your a tougher, raised against the grain person.

>the next rival is so awful he makes Silver look friendly
>he says shit like "it's just a game, tryhard" when you win and "ugh, stop wasting my time" when you lose
>he cheats by activating a machine to poison/sleep/etc. your team before the fight begins
>he switches one of your Pokeballs with a level 2 Bidoof when you're not looking, and you have to beat him to get it back, otherwise you're stuck with Bidoof
>at one point he kicks you in the groin, which has no effect on gameplay, but is said in-game to be very painful
>he becomes the champion, and if you sweep 5 out of 6 of his final team, he refuses to continue battling, halting the game and forcing a reset
ow the edge
