>>31414950I really hate the argument "you suck at pokemon games!", like what? What is there to suck at? It's a game made for 8 year olds. Even the battles have slow paced prompts, you can't fail anything in game, nothing requires super fast reaction or strategy.
I don't have a problem with natures or EVs but I do admit sometimes I wish there was just some in-game method of easily changing things around like that. I honestly don't even think shinies are good to an extent, it allows GF to be lazy and never put in a pokemon colour palette changing mechanic with feeding berries. I wouldn't mind shinies ALONGSIDE the colour changing, but at this point the shinies just aren't good enough. It was cool back when there were only like 250 or whatever in gen 2 due to limitations. But honestly it can't be that hard now.
Anyway, you aren't wrong it is pretty autistic to do this in any game when you have cheats available. but yunno, had there been no cheating devices you wouldn't say that shit like natures, IVs and EVs were autistic. Because it would be necessary to battle more efficiently. Your argument would remain the same "this is too much time for me wah wah", and that's where you should ask yourself "should I be playing games if I dont have time to put into it in the first place?"
Anyway, I really dont care.
It's a fucking game.
Hack, breed, do neither, fucking who cares.
At the end of the day they're just cute pet battle simulators. If you like that then so long as youre doing ANYTHING related to it and enjoy it then there's a reason for your autistic grinding.
