I think I'm finally burned out of pokemon.
I just can't justify spending all that time grinding again. I thought they would get better in gen 7, but it got worse.
While bank would offer some comfort, not being able to compete with transfered pokemon sucks.
I don't understand why GF insists on making pokemon such an autistic time sink.
>just inject lol
Might as well just continue playing on Showdown.
My last hope now are the QR Rental Teams.
>Inject
>Showdown
GF has given people that just want competitive no other choice.

say what now?
>>31220486
You can only compete with clover-symbolled Pokémon this year for VGC, pentagons and no symbols (Gen 6 and below) can't be used.
>>31220542
Why do this. I don't get it. This goes against everything that Pokemon preaches, and it's really pointless, mechanics-wise.
>>31220148
Lol who cares? Go play SMT or whatever.
Bye
Just go back to the old games.
Maybe that'll help remember why you got in this in first place.

>just inject lol
there's no glory on showdown my dude
>>31221112
Because...you know, i honestly don't get the point of the stupid pentagon and clover symbol. All it does is make our Pokemon of last gen useless and force us into re-creating them so they have the stupid symbol in order to participate.
The symbols I guess were to discourage hacking, but all it does is encourage injecting even more.
>>31221112
They always do this every time there's a new generation to showcase the new Pokemon on VGC.
This will not be the case on the next following years until a new gen gets developed again.

>Might as well just continue playing on Showdown.
Injecting with soundhax is roughly as easy as making a team on showdown. If you prefer battling on cart for any reason, just battle on cart.
>>31220542
>VGC
Unless you're actually participating in tourneys, what's the point?
>>31221828
>showcase the new Pokemon on VGC
>it's almost entirely tapus, ubs, and old mons
>>31221828
I don't really care about VGC. In XY we could use our BW mons on the rest of the battle spot. The pentagon rule was only enforced on special competitions.
But since ORAS this cancerous rule spread to all modes. I figure SM will be the same.
>>31221870
I also forgot to mention mons that appear on the Alola Dex. Of course old mons that appear on Alola count.
>>31221893
I don't recall ORAS battlespot enforcing the blue pentagon, but I rarely battle on battlespot. Wasn't it just a VGC thing?
>>31221918
It was a VGC-only thing in XY, but ORAS enforced them on all rated battles (singles, doubles, rotations, triples).
Just inject lol
