Because it's SO FULL OF SHIT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO HAVE FUN IN ANY WAY

GARCHOMPS
BLAZIKENS
PARAFLINCHS
POWER HERB GEOMANCY
PERFECT RNG AGAINST YOU
CRITS OUT OF NOWHERE
WORSE THAN THE FUCKING BATTLE MAISON

My team is quite simple, a Prankster Lierpard (swag/foul play/Twave/taunt) as a lead, Scolipede (baton pass/sword dance/megahorn/protect) and my Nidoking (Psn Jab/rock slide/EQ/megahorn), and out of 10 battles only ONE was successful, because when I use swagger it ALWAYS, FUCKING, FAILS, out of those 10 times only ONE did the fucking jap pokemon it itself, all the other times?, NO, FUCK ME, CONFUSION DOESN'T DO SHIT AND THEY SNAP OUT OF IT IN THE NEXT FUCKING TURN, BUT OH BOY LET SOMEONE OR THE NPC USE THAT SHIT AGAINST ME, I GET CONFUSED INTO SELF-INFLICTED DEATH IN A MATTER OF FUCKING SECONDS

Maybe I am just having a completely shitty day but goddamn this is frustrating as fuck, there's just no fun at all, and of those 10 matches I only had fun in ONE of them, and not even the one I won, the hell.

share your frustration in online battles and how you can't use your favorites because the smogon completely destroyed sane fun with toruney shit.
