Can someone give me a quick rundown on Pokemon?

The mainline video games seems like autism-bait
>EP and IP points?
>You want them to be high but there's no way to train them you just have to grind the tall grass or eggs
>Mega Evolutions wtf?
>Rock paper scissors gameplay
>Shit stories
>Juvenile characters
>Ugly monsters
>Ugly presentation
>Huge exposure 3DS games but the devs are too lazy to code 3D into them

The trading card game
>Fun to open packs
>Good artwork with a variety of artisic styles
>Can implement actual strategy
>Don't need an autism box to play

Explain?

What you have just posted is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever read. At no point in your rambling, autistic post were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone on this board is now dumber for having read it. I award you no keks, and may God have mercy on your soul.

ya but i assume its cool to get them in card packs, but actually having something as dumb as arbitrary pokemon having special evolutions just makes everything more unnecessarily complex and gimmicky/gay

basically card megas =/= game megas

He also claims the VG has ugly monsters and the TCG doesn't, mis-spelled EVs and IVs and seemed to imply that spending money on a 3DS is autistic but buying hundreds of dollars of cards to keep up with the format isn't. He's just trolling

How does getting them in a card pack make them any different? and these arbitrary megas only a few pokemon get are the same in the card game and the regular games, it's not like PTCG has mega buizel, mega sunflora and others, it has the same ones. And it's also gimmicky/gay as hell given how many cards centered around them there are and how they have their own mechanics.

So card megas = game megas

The autistic community ruined breeding by exploiting hidden stats then made it a unspoken law all pokemon must be bred with these perfect stats, but all the manchildren are lazy and just pk hex all their pokemon so its a giant circle jerk between hackers and legit players also another pit of autism called smogon exists so manchildren can pretend a kids monster collecting game is hardcore competitive.

While you're being a retard in general and there's no reason people should ever want to put themselves at an objective disadvantage, I do feel like there's a large part of the competitive community whose primary goal, rather than actually playing or getting better themselves, is to try to make themselves look more professional by putting other players down with things like "flawless or bust" and "no gimmicks ever, not even on an alt account in low ladder, it is an insult to the metagame"

That's true. I'm a big VGC player and I occasionally go to TCG leagues, and the way they talk about money there makes me feel really uncomfortable.

I don't even particularly mind spending the money needed to make all the top decks, what gets to me is that people at these events can brag about the fact that they paid an extra $100 to get all of their cards in reverse-holos. People ask my why I've chosen not to run my Shaymin in Full Art, and when I say it's because I consider it a waste of money, there's an awkward hushed silence and whispers of "kill the heathen". I've actually seen somebody buy a booster box for $110 in one shop instead of $95 in another shop so they can tell their friends that they take their hobby so seriously that they put more money than necessary in.

>>Fun to open packs
Fun to blow wads of cash every month or so to be competitive as opposed to a $40 game once every few years.
>>Good artwork with a variety of artisic styles
sure
>>Can implement actual strategy
Can look up decklists on the internet or get beaten by neckbeards and eleven-year-olds that do.
>>Don't need an autism box to play
No, you go to an autism box to play.

That really pisses me off, probably for different reasons to the rest of this board.
It isn't just that the girl on the right is naturally more beautiful, she has actually put a load more effort in.
Hair and make-up like that takes hours to put on
The pose and expression take talent or practice
The fact that it's a good camera and a good backdrop shows that effort was put in.
Admittedly she wouldn't look like a model, but she could at least look stylish.
