>>15442570Like I said in a different post, if there's a reward at the end, then you didn't waste time.
I could say that reading is a waste of time, but you get something when you are done reading a book, be it knowledge, feels, whatever the fuck you get from reading.
From breeding you get good Pokemon, suit for online battles. You spent some time into making a good team, and this gives you an edge against other people.
That's the reward.
And stop using that lame ass excuse of "wasted time" because I bet, like most of us, you spend the whole day sitting in front of the PC, playing your 3DS while watching a movie you illegaly downloaded from the pirate bay.
