>>46235122>all those things are fucking awful.They are only awful from the sperg perspective. Because the sperg perspective only cares about min-maxing.
These features were the key to achieve uniqueness, so no pokémon of the same species were the exact same. That was the purpose of IVs, EVs, TMs, etc, it added depth to the world and diversity to your mons being an extra layer on top of chosing its nickname and its moveset, and it worked great until spergs appeared. If you are going to twist the idea of pokémon attributes for a min-maxing objective, this feature inevitably turns into an obstacle instead. But it was the sperg's decission to see it this way. Not Gamefreak, not the average player, not what the worldbuilding and lore suggests. That's ok if you want to play an online simulator, which is centered around battling and battling only, but a soon as you mix it with the rpg , the entirety of the game is ruined. The rpg is not battling only, it includes exploration, build-up, and design choices. If you treat it like the simulator it is not, all of those things become obstacles to you, so for the sperg, the game becomes shit. The sperg is so retarded he pays money to buy a game in order to play it like a simulator that is already free online. I have no problem with retards who enjoy being retards, until they start ruining things for the non retards.
Of course /vp/ os 90% sperg and won't accept this though. They'll keep blaming everyone else for their own faults
