>>36354767No, but I've always been highly into competitive.
I obviously don't always win because I build a team around one or two I like though.
Best I've ever done was with my main Gen 6 team in it's testing which went 92 wins out of 100 tests battles to make sure everything was right, 41 of them being in a row. In general, having kept track of a bunch of data across all of my games from Gen 4 on, I've had about a ~72% win rate.
Every time I've gone hard at it, I've also ended up in the top 20 - 100 in the world and top 3 in my country (have yet to be second though, it's been a few threes and one 1st place).
To throw back a question at you though, do you have fun while doing it? Almost all of the most fun battles I've had were ones I was taken off guard by - ones I lost.
A good game is a good game, but it's more fun to be challenged or learn from it.
If you care about getting better a good suggestion I would give - beyond using competitive ready Pokémon if you aren't - is to save the battles where you lose. Especially if they're close matches. Play therm back and look over them and see where you went wrong so you know not to make that mistake again.
Counterpoint to that I would also suggest never saving ones you win unless there is something specific you want to look at besides the fact that you won. I don't have videos for any of the battles I played perfectly, especially if it involved multiple instances of risky prediction. I know watching them back would inflate the fuck out of my ego.
