Personally I think an AU where GameFreak actually didn't care about competitive Pokemon and continued making the games strictly for ten year olds would be a much funnier world, but probably not necessarily a better one

The competitive scene would exist either way, is the thing, and I just think people taking it seriously when it was ACTUALLY never meant to be would be hilarious

Anyway, Amy is having opinions about competitive Pokemon and that's her right, I just don't have any real opinions on the matter but I DID imagine this instead so thanks Amy

I think it's fine and normal that GameFreak does balance Pokemon for competitive, for the record

I have that opinion at least

@coriander I remember a record of an official pokemon tournament in gen 1 where the winner was a kid with 6 mewtwos

@coriander i don’t think Game Freak should stop caring about competitive pokémon but i do think Game Freak should make more pokémon noncompetitive

electrode shouldn’t learn electric-type moves. ledian shouldn’t learn bug- or flying-type moves. they are cowards for not sticking to this bit
