Here is what I don't understand when people say "karen fag" shit;

>"Use your favorites to win! That is true skill!"

They claim to "love pokemon more than I do," yet they have such a narrow conception of what it means to use pokemon that they only see 1 purpose for their supposed favorites, battling... As if all of a Pokemon's uses are just battling. You criticize me when I use Skarmory on my team; yet I know where all of his moves came from and Skarmory would be nothing without the Brave Bird he learned from one of my favorites, his father Farfetch'd. Blissey would lose so many battles if he wasn't carrying the spirit of my old-time favorite, Mawile, who gave her Seismic Toss, and Mawile learned Seismic Toss from my ancient Gen1 favorite of all time, Primeape!

When I battle, I am using the collective forces of ALL my favorite pokemon, so don't give me this karen fag bullshit that I should "use my favorites." I AM USING MY FAVORITES, so suck a dick.

Ok, I got my sperg out so this can now transition into an autism general thread.

Some of my favorite Pokemon, like Gallade and Tropius, are mostly useful for ingame grunt work like catching, training and HM coverage.

We all have jobs to do.

Even though I'm full on smogonfag, that's sort of complete bullshit and not even slightly how the karenfag philosophy works.
Why aren't you using the same Mawile or Primape on your team instead of breeding it down to Seismic Toss on some OU Pokemon you're only using because it's "better"?
Why aren't you using ember, the first fire move your favorite fire Pokemon learned or something? Why brave bird and not fly or something?

Aside from that you had something entirely going with the "they think they love their Pokemon more" or something but you're going about it all wrong. I go with the philosophy of having Pokemon who are useful becoming my favorites because it's the same thing. Maybe I used Crobat to only help my team and switch in for Earthquakes to save my Infernape, but then thanks to that, I've grown fond of Crobat as much as I've liked Infernape because both of those bonds grew from simply battling and having those Pokemon save me in times of need. The extreme of using Pokemon you don't like only to win is shared by very few people and I'd dislike the profile as well if it existed nearly as much as people think it does. The top players of OU are using things like Bisharp who are clearly not OU, but worthwhile to use because they like them and can build teams knowing how to use Pokemon they like, because they aren't retarded. It's worse when the extreme of the karenfag side is more prevalent in their nature of using only their favorites, adamant about never giving "good Pokemon" a chance no matter how much they might grow to like them or anything just because they're OU or something.

Fuck it, just play Pokemon.

>Why aren't you using the same Mawile or Primape on your team
They don't fit on my team. Blissey is just as much a favorite of mine but she is more useful in battle, that's objective fact, and she has a better place on my team. She is carrying the torch so that when I win, Primape and Mawile also win, because without them I never would have won. Karenfags don't use shitty moves on purpose, they pick their favorites and then try to win with them. I'm just saying I do the same thing, but I don't narrowly define "use" as "I MUST HAVE THEM ON MY SMALL TEAM OF 6 POKEMON AND I MUST FIGHT WITH THEM BECAUSE THAT IS THEIR ONLY PURPOSE!!!!!"

6 is way too small to fit all my favorites, and the attitude of treating them like just battlers is insulting to the pokemon they are so pretentious about "loving more than you."

This argument doesn't make any sense. By your logic, posting something this stupid makes your parents stupid too as you are "carrying the torch".
>Have fun with your stupid parents
