Pokemon players wouldn't know a good story if it shat on their balls

Remember how many pokenormies lost their shit when they realised that Bede was 'LE JERK RIVAL'? You ever notice how this community is so starved for satisfying, coherent stories that when they see a character that acts ever-so-slightly smug or arrogant it's all OHHHHH MY GODDDDDD BEST RIVALLLLLLL NO WAAYYYYYY even though he is completely unthreatening to anyone but Hop.

>Bede says that he's the best before getting his ass beat in a fight

>"OHHHHH MY GODDDDDD THEY DID A HECKIN' MEAN RIVAL! HE ACTUALLY FULFILLS HIS ROLE IN THE STORYRINO!"

Early game Bede was literally just Silver all over again and he made normies flip their shit for being slightly subversive. Is this how bad we have it in the story department now?
