That's not the POINT, the point is that it's tedious and doesn't really make sense in the modern age. Plus people end up fucking you over on the GTS with held items.
And some Pokemon like Accelgor and Escavalier, you can't even breed one yourself unless you have someone you trust to trade it back or two copies of the game.
It's dumb. I don't like it. There should at least be alternative methods of evolution.
