>>50245470I like to think pokemon battling is somewhat niche in the world of pokemon, and not everything revolves around it. Kind of like boxing. Yeah, it's cool, and most people know a little bit about it, but most people only really tune in for the big matches.
If a ten year old became a boxing champion, I mean yeah, that's fuckint awesome, but I mean... who really cares? Once they're done being champion, they get a quieter life and it's more of a passing curiousity. Something like I'd you bumped into Mike Tyson. You're not going to be screaming OH MY GOD AHHH you're probably just going to be like "huh, cool".
