Meant to say "only beat single-player."
As in, I don't play against others.

Are there actually people who are so casual they don't/cannot beat the base game?

I qualify, sort of. I don't really give a shit about breeding/IVs/Evs, but I still play with others just for fun. And I still actually try to form a decent team to beat the League, rather than just picking "the cool ones".

If you don't bother with multiplayer you should seriously consider another RPG series. All the depth in the series in in battling and trading.

How is this even possible? You're not going to do anything else and even a total idiot could eventually do it.

I play Pokemon to trade and battle with friends before breeding a team to take on randoms. I'd never recommend Pokemon as a singleplayer experience because that is to RPGs what Brawl is to fighting games.
The only depth and challenge to be found in the game is playing against others.

So you don't play for the collecting aspect at all, and don't even care for the Pokémon themselves.
Why bother? Fuck off.

You're not allowed to criticize one aspect of the franchise in favor of the other. You're contradicting yourself.

I have a complete pokedex in my copy of Y. I use every feature of a Pokemon game, but I'm not going to list them all.
It's a known fact that Pokemon's campaign is as shallow as a mobile game, and the mechanical depth only becomes appreciable when playing with others.

You have two options: You can get recommendations for a better RPG experience, or you can admit you like eating shit due to nostalgia.

I have a deal to make with you, OP. If you can find any group of adult players that are not obsessed with battling, I will tell you anything you want to know.

Why? I breed Pokemon with perfect natures/egg moves/IVs/genders and train them to level 100 with optimal EV spreads just for the satisfaction of doing it. I've probably reached 100 with five or six boxes' worth of Pokemon over the last 15 years.

That you injected.

I should honestly discard your post just for this.
>mechanical depth
Are you autistic?
>You have two options:
I have many options, but I'll continue playing games I like.
You'll continue having a hollow experience with video games in general, only playing because of some halfassed competitive aspect that isn't even good.
Never being able to appreciate anything else.

Casualfag here. I understand how IVs/EVs/breeding work, but I've always found it more fun to play with a team of Pokemon that I like, rather than build a team on strategy/optimization.

Only first point applies to me.
Whenever I feel compeled to I will finish.
I only discovered IVs and EVs fairly recently and they really only matter if you care about competitive play.
