>>53903852In the base games, pokemon are defined by their type, ability, stat block, and move pool. In PoGo, we have no abilities, the stats are all fucky, and each pokemon gets a bare handful of moves. These worthless pokemon COULD be useful for something, but niantic went out of their way to ensure that only a handful of pokemon even have the possibility of being good. They didn't even structure their fucked up combat system in a way that allows for bad pokemon to be useful, or even in a way that makes sense with their stat system. Even if you LIKE the tappy combat, it still sucks that you have to wait for months to use your pokemon in the Microshitter Humanoid-Only cup once a year.
