>>45710641>They scrapped that idea because trainers being able to fight on their own would make Pokemon pointless.Have you never played a jRPG with an actual party before? 90% of Pokemons problems is that it's a 1v1 turn based game. The system is a result of Gameboy technical limitations and they never fucking moved past it. I ended up in this thread by accident but this is why I don't even touch Pokemon anymore, it's brain dead and boring, where competitive matches are more about your autistic build (the same one everyone uses) than actually being clever. I know I'll get non-sequitur and otherwise retarded replies to this if I stay so I'm gonna head out. More power to those of you that have fun with the game though, I'm happy for you
