Starcraft pvp since the beginning.

>most common
You really think IV autists outnumber people who just want to play Pokémon?

>Any RTS PVP
FTFY
People hate scout rushing but everybody still does it.

You're the only one who brought up IVs. The pic just shows some guy choosing the one with the higher level and better moves.

The games and the anime are not the same canon/reality they have different rules

Obligatory.

If anything the only lesson is that not all successful traits are apparent at first and often merge latter in life after successful development.

Which no normal person actually does.

t. never played pokemon

Are you serious, nigger? Everybody once in a while caught something and then immediately found a higher leveled version or an evolved one.

I don't know why Ash is surprised at the concept of capturing more than one of the same pokemon

he caught 30 Tauros in one Safari zone trip

No one who has any semblance of sanity actually fucking does it legitimate, they inject and be on their goddamned way.
Or even better, they just play Showdown.

Nobody with any resemblance of sanity actually plays that shitfest of RNG and no balance that is pokemon PvP.

That's going to change soon.

they made it so easy to get perfect IVs now that it's literally who gives a fuck. They're transparent about IVs and EVs now, they're not even hidden

All by accident

IVs were a fucking annoying concept that turned the post game into a bike simulator. Natures and EVs are already enough

I've been OCD about natures since they were introduced.

>top to bottom before left to right
who is the idiot who arranged it like this

IVs, EVs and fixed natures were a fucking mistake. They only serve to waste your time and to make people hate on weak Pokemons.

But I hate Lando T

This is actually a good point. I mean, in the Pokémon community, playing by the rules means you're a cuck. While if you cheat, you're doing it right. I actually think it's pretty sad. Especially since i actually enjoy breeding and find the entire proces incredibly relaxing.

Karen is right. Using your favorites is most fun.
