>>55260133Yeah, it's fucking absurd how Pokemon conveys information in the most absurdly tedious ways possible. Half the time I don't want to use moves like Curse or Dragon Dance, or have Pokemon with Mold Breaker or Schooling at the front of my party because I don't feel like sitting through the deluge of text boxes explaining it to me for the thousandth time. Every other RPG in existence is able to display the same amount of information in a fraction of the time. A 4-versus-5 fight in Shin Megami Tensei 5 takes less time to get through than a one-on-one in Pokemon. It's absurd and there's no reason for it.
