I'll start: I never use traded mons, even if they have 6IVs, perfect nature, moves and abilities, because they dont feel like my own

I feel you OP, there's something nice in seeing you're the OT of all your six.

I don't give a single shit about competitive Pokemon in the slightest but just the fact that this flawed ass system exists and that usually my ingame Pokemon are worthless for online play pisses me off. Which is very ironic because I have no desire to play Pokemon with other people.

I do this too. At the most I use trade mons for breeding if they have Hidden Abilities/Good IVs and Nature.

I also can't use a Pokemon that there aren't canonically multiples of. It bothers me that some random 11 year old kid is just allowed to use some ultra-rare one of a kind mon. Especially if it plays a deity like role which is why I can't use the Tapus.

I have injectbros inject me perfect mons so I can then breed them for my own perfect mon.

I have done it since Gen VI since half the shit I had in Gen V couldn't transfer over even though I got 99% of it from the GTS.

I refuse to use them do to how autistically obsessed Smogon is with them.

I used to Smogon OU, but when I saw these niggas became butter on the bread for literally 2 whole generations and didn't see a hit because of how supposedly they didn't see high usage in higher elo, I said fuck this, I'm done.

Now I VGC because at least I can merc them.

I make sure my moves are always arranged something like

Z-Conversion Porygon-Z is making me question if I should put all Status moves after Physical/Special, regardless of if they're signature or setup moves.

I feel like it wouldn't be so bad if my autism was actually productive in-game, but it just costs me extra hours and doesn't get me any farther or stronger in the long run.

I don't do this anymore but when I was little I would always grind my team against Pokemon that had a type advantage over them. I thought it would make them "used to getting hit with a super effective move" and make them stronger in the long run than if I was always putting them in fights where they would have the advantage.

I order my team from least to highest level, with same levels ordered from least HP to most HP. Odd habit I've picked up from playing over the years. I also usually ONLY catch what I plan to use, so I end up with anywhere from 6 to 8 Pokemon total.

I use traded mons of pokemon like Mimikyu, Zubat, Magikarps etc. Especially when I got a Mimikyu during my first run of sun through wondertrade. I thought it felt unloved, and used it like it was my own.

I also like to think of me and my pokemon having their own tv show together, and I play a montage in my head with them and I. Other than that I cant really think of autistic things i've done.

The only exception I've made in SuMo is catching Ultra Beasts in Beast Balls because it seemed thematically apropos.

When I was a kid playing Blue, I refused to use healing items and I would restart if a pokemon broke out of a ball because WHAT IF I NEED THOSE ITEMS LATER?

Nowadays I just throw items all over the place because I realize I'm never going to run out of anything you can buy.
