If they're bored and know the game is getting stale anyway, why the fuck haven't they tried to make the games more fun? Pokemon have so much goddamn potential for all these cool storylines and whatnot, but it's never fucking used.

I was picturing a scene in my head earlier where you had to race against a villain on a Rapidash, having a Pokemon battle with flying types as you two race against the clock, darting through trees and obstacles and everything as the pokemon clashed,

Things like that, why not??
