Why gen 6 has such braindead gameplay?

>2HKO resists, OHKO neutrals
>Predict? What's that? Still 2HKO whatever comes out after rocks/spikes
>oh no they set up, Bravest Bird to the rescue
>Prankster Thunder Wave just in case
>Choice Specs Hyper Voice XD great choice
>auto pilot Sableye/Shedinja/Gothitelle/Quagsire stall core

Can it get any worse in gen 7?
But hey, at least we don't have OP dragons anymore

except pokemon is pretty far from braindead and requires a lot of thinking and predictions once you get out of elo hell, where all the actual braindead players are stuck in. and judging from your opponent having heat wave, unless youre in doubles, it looks like youre an elo hell player yourself.
sure it's unbalanced and uncompetitive, but it's fucking pokemon. either learn to deal with the cards youre dealt with or play something else

You're the braindead one, OP's picture clearly shows that one other Pokemon dodged the Heat Wave. He's playing Doubles.

Bravest Bird is literally the most cancerous thing this generation has introduced. 120 BP priority STAB, fucking brilliant. That won't completely eliminate every single Bug that doesn't have a secondary type resisting Flying from OU at all.

And this coming off Gen V, which was so friendly to best type.

Thanks, Mr. GameFreak! I especially appreciate how you made Fairy resist Bug for absolutely no reason, what with Bug being such a ferocious offensive threat and all. Good thing everyone's favorite Bug has Bullet Punch on Technician, which doesn't even change when he Megas!

holy fuck the GF Scizor dick-riding is almost as bad as the GF Gengar dick-riding. stealing Shadow Tag from Chandelure my fucking ass

Stealth Rocks ruined Pokémon to be honest. A guaranteed 12.5% damage minimum whenever your opponent switches something in that forces them to ruin something with Rapid Spin and Defog. That's even worse than Megas which more or less require you to run one.

The Gen IV meta was fine with them because damage was more gradual back then.

Biggest problem is the power spike coming from megas. Megas should just outright be banned from competitive play to make things simple. They are by far the worst "addition" Gamefreak has added to the game. They add NOTHING different in terms of strategic like the physical special split did, they just make numbers bigger and give retarded OP abilities.

This has been happening every gen.

It's called power creep.

Gen 3 was more offensive than Gen 2 (which was dominated by stall), Gen 4 was more offensive than Gen 3, Gen 5 was more offensive than Gen 5, and Gen 6 is more offensive than Gen 5.

Honestly reading people say how much megas improved competitive disappoints me.

There's not a single new strategy that megas brought,

SR was so strong in gen 4 that you'd give up one of your pokemon to set it up while not letting the opponent set theirs. Should've been banned day 1 imo.

It's such a weird move.
I'm not sure who looked at it and thought being able to do up to 50% damage sounded fair.
To compare, you have to use spikes 3 times to do 25%.
Maybe it's time to make stealth rock just be a reskin of spikes.

No, now its boosted Hyper Voice and Return everywhere, everyone and their moms with 150+ Attack or Sp.Atk bases and Knock Off literally everywhere.

Having an offensive meta is not bad. However, it really stopped being somehow healthy to over centralized in spamming scout attacks and use only top ten OU tier mons. Before, and I am referring to Gen IV, even the shittiest Pokémon could have some kind of niche in high tiers (ok, not the shittiest, but the amount of good possibilities in just one tier was higher).
