Have you ever had your overall in-game experience ruined because you worried too much about natures, IVs, and EVs at the wrong time?
shit no one cares about:with hyper training coming in a few months, I'm starting pokemon black from scratch, though I'm still a little autistic about natures

Well, now that we have hyper and super training, natures ARE the thing you have to be autistic about.
>>27792114
The only thing I care about is natures for ingame 'mons, and even then, I'm not that autistic about it. Like, if I get an abra with a -sp atk nature, I'm going to keep catching them until I get one that doesn't have a -sp atk nature.
>Want to be autistic and start building a good ass team now even with SM just around the corner and going to add a bunch of shit to consider
It's killing my motivation to complete ORAS but that's the worst of it.
I usually went for natures only. There's no point thinking about IVs and EVs on main game unless you could edit them. Which is what I'm doing on Gen 6 with PCHex.
What gets me is team building. I want to build a balanced team (in typings) with designs that I like and the pokémon need to be viable at something. Playing W2 right now and I'm finally building something I like and I'm having fun. Will use them for PWT.
Because i mostly use awfully bad 'mons ( Like Wormadam, Beautifly or Sunflora ) in game, always try to at least have decent stats... cuz nobody wants to play an impish Sunflora, not even me.
When i was younger i wanted to have some near-perfect 'mons but it just wasn't fun to reset 50 times for a fuggin perfect nature, so now i just go with the first "decent" (like a neutral nature) thing i see.

Sometimes I catch myself trying to EV train shit when I'm doing normal fuckall playthroughs of old gens for fun. Like recently in my Daimond run I sat and grinded my Machop in a specific patch of grass that only spawned machops and geodudes so it would have better attack, but I realized it was dumb and shit and stopped after 12 EVs. That shit is too tedious to care about if you're not making a perfect comp battling team.
When I do ORAS or XY and I have a mon of a certain nature or only excelles in a certain build (or even just one I like and want to be useful) I'll sit down and do the super training since it only takes a couple minutes. 20 a day beats the hell out of 4 hours daily in Gen4 trying to get semi-usuable Gibles.

Actually a lot of people did that for ORAS and haven't even finished within a month of starting because of DexNav and wanting perfect IVs + good egg moves early.
Brave Burd Taillow be damned.
The in-game experience is meant to be completed by children, it's laughably easy.
So no, I've never worried about any of that shit for in-game
