and there need to be bad pokémon, because 1) that's the arbitrary way it is, it's what pokémon is, its formula if you will 2) if that motivation alone doesn't stop you or makes you shout "implying improvement isn't a thing", it's also because of the single player game, where the player has to pick some pokèmon that may not be the strongest at earlier stages of the game 3) you try and do that with 600 of the damn things, MOBAs are trying with 100+ and they are already struggling 4) pokémon is not all about competitive, some are just cute mascots, some have theming, some of them are just there because fuck you
