>>24896193This. Stuff like the Seiryuu terrain condition, the Weakness status effect, the existence and ridiculous availability of Smash Spin, the fact that the game's equivalent to Taunt can be learned by everything ever, the general lack of legit walls capable of taking massive amounts of damage but being unable to do much back (save for the game's Chansey equivalent), the fact that there isn't a single ungodly good defensive typing like Steel in regular Pokemon, and the existence of incredibly powerful threats that cannot be dealt with via a passive playstyle (Sukuna keeps getting cute pictures posted for a reason) all serve as proof that Hemo wants stall to not exist.
And he's completely right. Stall is dumb and boring and makes matches drag on way too long; the fact that Smogon is obsessed with making Stall work at all times is one of the major reasons I lost interest in competitive Pokemon (alongside the fact that Pokemon is not very balanced).
Besides, it's fun to watch the puppets beat each other up, even if I end up losing; I'd rather have fun than win.
