Pokemon is just not a competitive game, period. The game in itself fosters the very opposite of exellence, in which the ideals are to be as individualistic as possible. This kills objectivity in strategy evaluation, and in tandem with the "practice4success" mentality despite being in a game with only really at most 3-4 viable options per turn, not to mention sweet, sweet, RNG, this is a game where results don't matter at all. Not in usage. Not in tournaments. Anyone who says otherwise is a filthy karenfag at heart and they know it.
