the community was going to rot until nothing was left with or without showdown and smogon

competitivefags are the only pokétards that aren't absolutely revolting human beings

what exactly are you afraid of happening?

nintendo's known about battle sims since the early days, and a kotaku article isn't going to pique casual curiosity in them. most casuals probably saw the article, read a bit of it and moved on to something else

Nintendo also knows about Fan Games in general, but doesn’t know about every fangame.
Kotaku also reported about Uranium which was taken down shortly after.

showdown isn't just for smogon formats retard, many people use it to simulate VGC meta and generally thats how the VGC meta evolves quickly

The main problem is the divide between people who can look at the games critically and see that they've been getting shittier and shittier and the people that turn a blind eye to all the flaws, or do mental gymnastics to twist them into a perceived positive

Unfortunately big brother Google will put articles from any site on a newsfeed if you're even the tiniest bit interested in it

You really think the vast majority of people are actually going to go to showdown and bother to actually play the game? They'll probably play a game or two with a team of 6 legendaries that are all shiny, get stomped into the dirt by a retard with a gimmick team, then never play the game again and go back to circlejerking about how much pokemon fans suck on twitter.

Between this and Polygon talking about how Pixelmon will have all the Pokemon, I'm wondering if there's an actual effort to kill Pokemon by capitalizing on the 'dex cuts one way or another.

Just because it's own your feed doesn't mean you have to give them clicks.
