>when my opponent disrupts my intracately thought out strategy and the battle doesn't go exactly the way I thought it would in my head and I have to ragequit because I can't adjust

It's faster to forfeit and win the next game than it is to adjust and maybe win this one. That's just how ladders work

This, especially if the opponent is running stall or bulky shit that will take too long. I'd rather take a new team matchup, knowing that if I get the right opposing teamcomp it's 80% winrate, rather than spend all my time to maybe get a 50% winrate in one particular matchup.

Pussies. It's also faster to decline a job if they ask for a drug test and background check. The reason people still go with it is because they have a pair of balls and dont run away when things are mildly inconvenient. Cant understand why people think this way. Is their time really that important?

There's a massive difference between getting a job and playing a pokemon battle simulator for fun

Honestly if you just give up in a disadvantaged situation you're cheating yourself out of valuable experience to become a better player. Thinking through hard situations is also more fun than everything going perfectly and you just steamroll your opponents team.

>ragequitting
Just play meme sets and stall forever
Waste the opponents time as much as possible, and if you lose, you at least pissed someone off, which in my mind is 100% a victory
People who obsess over ladders on a blatantly broken and skewed game are fucking stupid

So climbing the ladder is more important to you than pokemon battling? Just go play Ladder Climbing Simulator then, faggots.

This.
I had my highest W/L ratio when I had a full team of cheap, bullshit memes because most people just forfeited instantly.

This like on cart, I was put in a situation where 3 out of 4 of my Pokemon fainted while my opponent still had 4 Pokémon yet I chose to stick till the end and I was rewarded for sticking as my last Pokémon Dusknoir singlehandedly carried me and obliterated all 4 of my opponents Pokemon and winning the game. From that I’ve learnt that sticking around can provide unexpected results now and then.

Doesn't this just prove that even the teams you come up against and choices people make in game are ultimately just more luck?
lmao at people who still think this game is competitive

anon if you're unironically playing competitive Pokemon, you're already a soulless robot who's given up on life
at that point you might as well admit climbing the ladder is your only purpose
