>>47404963>Having different leagues based on CP balances the power levels within each league and gives Pokemon with low BST a place to shine >Attack being weighted more means that Pokemon with defensive stat spreads benefit (especially in the lower leagues), making the game overall more fair since raids/gyms favor offensive stat spreads. >Doesn't ban Pokemon for being legendary (since legendary doesn't always mean stronger). However, there is a Premier league so that people who don't have access to legendaries don't have to fight legendaries if they don't want to, >The real time battling makes battles look much more dynamic The only bad thing is the lag which Niantic seems to be working on since for the most part its become less and less of a problem.
