it exists for a reason.
If you play on shift mode and use items in battle then you have autism
>he cares for how others play the game
XY it's hard without Exp Share and easy with. So I use it up until point (normally Reflection Cave) and then tactically turn it on briefly when my team's lacking a bit. ORAS I'm pretty sure I had it off because I know Hoenn like the back of my hand. As for SM, I've only played it once, and yup I had it turned on. Basically because I wanted to breeze through it first run

i want all casualshits to get off my board

>/vp/ tells me I'm a casual with no grasp on difficulty in the series if I play with Shift on
>replay several of the games on Set
>none of them feel any harder at all
I've been playing with set on for a bit now. I think it should be the standard setting to be honest. It's not any harder and better prepares new players for after game battle facilities and competitive play.

the problem is that the game wants you to use exp share. The level scaling is fucking shit when you turn it off. Forcing you to do unnecessary grind.
I can only agree on set. I always turn battle mode on to set, it bothers the heck out of me when I'm the only trainer in the game who is allowed to switch their Pokémon when I take down the foes mon.

The games are piss easy and the AI is stupid. You can beat any Pokemon game with underleveled Pokemon if you're not a retard.

>Forcing you
My man, is not that hard
Even with a nuzlocke

>implying not grinding, not using Exp Share or using set mode is a challenge
Pretty good anime

>>he lets his mons evolve at their designated evolution levels
Mons gain bonus exp if you delay evolution now so that's not much of an argument.

>Forcing you to do unnecessary grind.
Bullshit. I had it off for the entire game, didn't do any grinding, and I only lost once in the entire game.
Maybe you just suck.
What they should have done is included an Exp. All, à la Gen I, but have it adjust distribution to Mons based on their levelling rate.

"Many persons with autism have similar difficulty seeing things from another person's perspective. Most five year olds understand that other people have different thoughts, feelings and goals than they have. A person with autism may lack such understanding."

It's better, we have to influence them, so people won't complain that x game is really easy because they used the "easy mode"..
