>>57225676>And many other kids did or didn't*Most* other kids did. *Most* kids (and most people) played the games this way, because it is the most convenient and therefore most "fun" way to play the games. It is not fun to sit around and grind your Pokemon's levels by switching them out for 2 hours. That's not fun, and it's also unnecessary and a waste of time. I already told you that I even wanted to use Vaporeon and Raichu during this playthrough, but gave up because it's just so god damn annoying to do. And that's on an emulator with speed up.
Why would I center my argument in favor of Exp. All around fringe cases that account for maybe 10% of all players, if we're being generous?
