>>13703380>And once that sense of balance is imposed, you can have fun and have fair>imposedThat's really my point. The "balance", if you can even call it that at this point, has to be forced into the games by fans-- meaning the games themselves are inherently broken. Fans had to warp the way the game is played, essentially, adding many extra rules to keep it from being even more of a total shitfest.
Additionally, the time-consuming nature of Pokemon breeding for perfect IVs and EV training have led to even official tournament champions using external devices to alter/edit/create Pokemon for competition.
Face it, the game itself is not suited for the type of competition we've turned it into.
