>>44993099Start off really nice and pick the weaker starter, but box it and become a smogon shitter after losing the initial starter battle. illegal, broken strats and stall only to the point where the protag CANNOT win without slamming their head against my walls, and then after they lose 3 times I say "Ah well, looks like you're to weak and can't give me a challenge" and let them pass me for free, but I just stand there as they walk by, rejecting them with the same repetitive "Get lost, weakling" message. borderline abusively tout that my battling skill is so much better than the protag and their shitty friends that I don't even have to fucking try.
My character arc is that its painfully obvious that I don't enjoy battling this way and I'm only doing this because my gifted child complex has been triggered and I can't cope. As the game progresses my team compositions become less bullshit, but the battles become more intense and enjoyable. I make it to the e4 and become champ (my starter is back by this point), but then job because the protag uses the UBER/AG-tier box legendary that I didn't get. During the postgame I get possessed by the third legendary and revert to my broken strats with a more fun team, and that's how I stay into the postgame having found a happy medium between having fun and being the second coming of cynthia, who was my main inspiration to use broken strats. Every after-story rematch with me is challenging and the level/AI of my team scales to the strongest pokemon in your party. Instant best asshole rival.
