To me, "main game" means the Pokemon experience as a whole. I have no idea why so many people separate everything into little vacuums, kills the point if you ask me.
So yes, I do care a bit about IVs, but not too much. Just want to make sure the Pokemon I use in the adventure are not completely useless online when I finish it.
I soft resetted until I got a +Sp.Atk nature and 27-30 Sp.Atk/Speed IVs Charmander.
The way I see it, it's a small amount of effort right now that will pay off in the hours and hours I spend using the mon in the future.
