Hackers don't have any sort of competitive advantage in this game though.

the prevalence of rng in Pokemon will prevent it from ever being an "e-sport"

They do if the edit pokemon in the middle of tourneys, but yeah I think most people agree that genning "legal" pokemon is acceptable. Shit even TCPI doesn't give a shit as long as they pass the hack checks. OP is just a retard that cares too much about what shortcuts people take to get the same end result.

>>30784465
Yes they have

And here we are again, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the fourth daily shitposting thread!

Seriously OP.
Kill your dog.

>>30784465
All that time breeding could have been spent training. Therefore hackers automatically have an advantage, fucktard.

>>30784547
Fuck you faggot what the fuck did the dog ever do to you? You're worse than OP. Fag.

>>30784512
Yeah you're right, I forgot about that. It's pretty shitty that someone would change their Pokemon in the middle of a tournament, at that point it's blatant cheating but I don't see a problem with genning a legal team and using it in a tournament as long as you don't try and change it in the middle of the tournament.

>>30784526
In what ways? Other than what >>30784512
mentioned.

Verlis pls leave.

E-sport is such a cringy phenomena in gaming

Don't play competitive then.

>competitive should only be played by privelaged manchildren that have nothing better to do than play a bike simulator and complain about games on the Internet

Hacking is a way better method to getting shinys and ivs.
Breeding/ev training are way better methods if you are to remain complacent with what tools the games give you to achieve the same results.

Except with hacking you could have that porygon be in a illegal ball.
With hacking you cut out the daycare from the equation.
With hacking you are assured 6 to 5ivs with hidden abilities whenyou want them instead of genuinely hatching thousands of eggs for 6ivs and 5ivs with the off chance you do get that shiny lediba that will be just as shitty like that injected hacked shiny lediba.

As long as you paid for the game you can do anything you want to it in my eyes.
This is why i both inject and breed.

>>30784949
Actually, it's a bull simulator.

>>30785199
You just give the reasons why cheaters have advantages

Pokemon can't be an e-sport.

The skill ceiling is so low that it can be reached in a lazy afternoon on google, it requires almost no practice on the player's part, and the only time consuming part of it is irrelevant, since anyone actually serious about it will skip it altogether.

And even once you've passed that very low requirement to be a "professional", the actual game is based on guesswork that's less like an actual battle of wits, and more like a flashy bout of rock-paper-scissors, with the only difference that it takes 60 hours because many have deluded themselves into thinking stall teams are the best thing.

>the actual game is based on guesswork that's less like an actual battle of wits, and more like a flashy bout of rock-paper-scissors

That's also why repeat champions are so rare, and tiers of direct-elimination tournaments are so randomly distributed.
The only determining factor that decides who climbs up and who falls is pure luck, everyone is just playing dice, but they think it's pure skill.

>>30785330
>cheaters have the advantage
>non hackers dont have the advantage
>this means pokemon will never be an esport

No e-sport takes care of cheaters

Every FPS game is filled with aimbots

Keep making this thread, pal

People complaining about hacks only makes it funnier and more worthwhile to do

e-sport =/= I play CS:GO in my basement

Actual e-sport tournaments are played in venues on premade PCs you have no control over

You're not going to enter a tourney without the right stats on your pokes, so it doesn't even matter whether or not your opponent hacked his, unless you have an unrealistically small amount of preparation time.

>>30786126
meanwihle people have been caught aimbotting at iems in csgo. really makes you think!

I'm getting tired of this, so I'll make it quick and say the things that are always said in these threads:

Fuck off Verlis, the stats are legal so its ok etc.

>>30784708

Go outside you fucking nerds. Or at least play chess or some shit.

>>30785973

>verlisify is THIS salty his accounts were almost stolen

>>30786014
Pretty much. Look at those years where VGC champions were all literally the same team. How come one team came in 1st and other in 2nd if they have the same mons, movesets and EV spreads? RNG.

Winning or losing is pure luck in this game. You could have a team that's objectively better than your opponent's but if they keep getting those flinches and parahax and what not you'll lose anyways.

>>30784708
It's been a thing since arcades with high score competitions. It's only just caught on because it has a marketable name. Same thing with "selfies"; the concept has been a thing since cameras were invented, but only good a name in the last couple of years.

>>30784430
That's why no one besides a few /vp/goers take that shit seriously.
