I almost topped the showdown ladder, but I went on a losing streak and haven't played since

to be fair
showdown and wifi are 2 complete different things (no sleep-clause, mega Blaziken etc)

Pokemon Showdown has a ladder specifically for this, so no sleep clause or banned megas etc

The whole point of these competitions is to have a unique metagame where you adapt with different Pokemon, sets and strategies

I am trying, and I know it's easier than ever, but fuck breeding 5 IV Pokemon. I can see why people resort to cheating. Anyway, I participated in no competitions in X and Y and I feel like I missed out on a lot.

Do you have 6IV Dittos?

Using a 6IV Ditto is cheating as well.

So what, despite Dittos creating 100% legal offspring you're going to painfully choose a slower route? It's not worth the time especially if it prevents you from having fun in competitions

No, but if you do I'm willing to trade for one.

The little differences between WiFi and Showdown (not showing items and levels on team preview, not having game timer) always bugged me though.

I bet you use online guides to find out how EVs work and what moves Pokémon learn.
That's cheating too.

I just wanted to point that despite still being breeding, it's still resorting to cheating. Might as well use Powersaves.

Breeding and training for competitive battling is tedious and autistic as fuck and I don't get how you people can stand it.

I guess official guides count as cheating too if that's the case.

Let me give you an analogy:

Say that you're taking a calculus class and you just don't understand integration by substitution. So you go online and watch videos on how to integrate by substitution and/or read online notes about it. Are you cheating because you looked online for help?

Or say you're working with the trigonometric identities and you don't remember them all. Is it cheating to go online and look up the identities that someone else has already figured out?
