>>45259201I understand from a game design point that it's so every battle with every NPC doesn't go on forever
But I wish some trainers, like say Ace Trainers, had more full-parties. And major (non-gym leader NPC) from the half-way point or beyond should have a full-party, and the last few Gym Leaders should also have full parties.
What gets me is that 6v6 single battles are still talked about constantly in the games, anime, other media, and even when Nintendo/TPCi/Game Freak talk about the games, but all the official tournaments are 4v4 Double Battles
