Tapus and UBs all day everyday
>tfw hate landorus-t but putting it on almost every team I build makes it objectively better

Shame he's a mere gentleman and not a member of the Elite Four. He can go clasp his hat somewhere else.
>>31182164
But anon, Uber tier Pokémon ARE my favorite Pokémon :^)
>>31182305
But the only pokemon stuck in Uber worth a damn is Megawile

Allright I can't stand this anymore.
Contrary to popular belief, you can both LIKE a Pokemon and have it win you battles. I love Garchomp. Because it looks fucking amazing. I think a landshark dragon thing is awesome as fuck. It also happens to be fucking strong.
However, you can also start liking a mon because it served you well in battles. I never cared much for Scizor, and I still kinda like Scyther better. But damn Scizor has won me so many battles. He attained Bro tier.

if he's good enough to be at the battle resort then he's just as skilled or better than the E4.

Pheromosa and Buzzwole are two OU mons just from this gen that I like.
It's not unlikely for Pokemon that have what it takes to battle with the best to look cool as well. If GF puts love into movepool/base stats/abilities, it's probably because the rest of the mon got love too.

>implying E4 slots are decided by skill and not how much you appease the pokégovernment
it's like you don't know how this shit works

"Whether or not a Pokémon is strong, you should use the ones you enjoy using."
>ORAS
"Fuck that shit Pokémon is serious business and we're not going to balance it for you, if you want shitmons like Persian or Maractus go fuck yourself."
Wally: "Yeah my team helped me become a strong person and got me through the Pokémon League and all, but they're shitters who couldn't make the cut and they're fucking boxed now prepare for OU: the experience faggot"
They're not wrong but it's pretty fucking disheartening to have in-game trainers actually say it.

Karen was just bring pretentious, she just happens to like Gengar!
>>31182865
The Dragon Elder also asks you if you should use "Strong" or "Weak" Pokémon
You're not getting your Extremespeed Dratini if you pick either one.
>>31182825
>if you want shitmons like Persian
>>31182825
At least they still have Red using his shit team!

Consider the context here, I don't think any NPCs in ORAS have any "anti friendship above all else" sentiments, as that is a big theme of the storylines.
The gentleman quoted in the OP's picture is at the Battle Tower island in ORAS, his comment is to remind casual players that the post-game content in the Battle Tower is the exact opposite of the shit they're used to during the main quest.
"Strong" and "Weak" is not necessarily pointing to pokemon with superior BSTs, but also pokemon who have complementary match-ups/resistances and also pokemon with superior IVs.
>>31182285
Pretty sure you have to beat the League in the first place to get to fight in the Battle Resort.
>>31184423
But he says nothing about strong or weak. He just says you'll have to be prepared to box your favorites and use Pokemon take can be more useful if need be.

I hate Lando's design, but I love it playing it on a team because of how much utility it provides. Same with shit like Heatran. Does that mean I'm using a mon I like or don't like?
