>>14374828>But nope. GF gave him pathetic offensive stats and a piss-poor typing.And this happens in every generation known to man. You fuckwits get excited about a Pokemon, constantly daydreaming about playing with it in a competitive environment only to get your wet little dreams repeatedly crushed several times with every instance of GF developing another pair of Pokemon games. The multiplayer aspect was never, ever a strong point of this series. The proof is in the pudding; every generation you people insist on whining about "perfectly good Pokemon" getting the shit end of the stick, and guess what? It always falls on deaf ears. Every single fucking time. Nothing is going to change, and you're going to be continuously disappointed as long as you all remain dedicated players of the metagame. You're nothing but masochists at heart.
>>14374873>the metagame is incredibly specialized and flexibleNo it isn't, and the little specialties and niches certain Pokemon have are often outperformed by more suitable Pokemon in higher tiers. If this was remotely as flexible as you imply, we wouldn't be having half of the disputes we do on /vp/.
