Gamefreak (actual devs) only care about VGC.
VGC has cash prizes.

Why does smogon make their own made up rules and battle format and then play it for free?

Smogon should play 4v4 doubles if they care about competition.

They also do, OU isnt the only format, they have a VGC subforum and showdown has a VGC ladder.
Stop discussing stuff you know nothing about.

Because they care about competition, not money.

You guys realise gamefreak have nothing to do with it right? The tournaments are run by the marketing guys, not the gamedev guys.
