>>55667718Yeah I'm a little retarded actually, I thought you replied to a different post of mine. That one was my bad, I apologize.
I'll correct myself then: it doesn't even HAVE to be about competitive specifically when you have hard PvE endgame content like 7* raids that also requires you to use Pokémon with proper IVs, EVs and natures.
But let's say IF you want to play competitive PvP, it doesn't matter if one of the Pokémon you caught in the first few hours of the game turned out to be meta viable, you can use that one instead of spending hours of your free time for breeding autism or whatever, and that's a good thing.
