Am I the only one who feels like people's judgement of Pokemon mechanics is too tied to the individual way they choose to play the games while never considering other people's experience?
>oh contests are pointless cause I never did them
>oh it sucks that Houndoom is so late in GSC cause I stop playing the game after the credits roll
>wow there's only two fire types in Sinnoh because I don't even bother to do the post-game routes
Like bitch have you thought about how maybe not everyone just plays Pokemon games to beat them once and shelve them? The battle content in the campaign is maybe like 20% of the total package when factoring in playtime for a 100% playthrough, so it's crazy to me that so many people seem to take it as the end all be all standard for what every piece of content should revolve around.
