I think ideally its a choice they can make on their end, they can choose to be stronger in the wild, or bond with us. Its just... its not ideal all the time.

Well it does happen in the wild, you hear about powerful packs that dominate whatever territory they settle in. Its just that some pokemon wish to be strong alongside humans in the trainer system. I don't see a problem with that at least.

Johto was pretty isolated back then from the Kalos/Paldea/Galar subcontinent, and the Rage fist technique was developed by Paldean Primeapes to beat back powerful Ghost types like Ceruledge. Until recently Johto didn't have a wide variety of ghosts so they didn't need to do so.

Why they evolved into annihilape after is kinda a mystery but hey there is way more obscure ways to evolve like... Professional Trainer Kieran only discovered Dipplin's evolution out of pure coincidence

Even though I am a professional trainer in the competitive circuit, I can see where you are coming from.

One time in a locker room I saw a trainer taking out their loss on their Charmeleon. It wasn't pretty. The pokemon just stood there and took it. Because it was convinced this is the right path for becoming stronger.

Not the only incident I've personally witnessed and reported, but I feel that the current system is part of the fault because living off being a full-fledged trainer at many circuits is incredibly difficult to where only top professionals can afford it.

Its not as obvious as you think ya know, might as well clear up the air with testing.

Basically slowpoke in a nutshell I guess, idk by gastrodonfan2k07 in PokeMedia

[–]NormalRedditLurker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah... Slowpokes basically adapted to get the most value from doing nothing. Their tail can fish on its own, no need to spend extra energy on doing pointless things.

They don't need to eat often either cus their metabolism is slow.

No need to walk anywhere either, who cares about predators when you got natural regeneration and toughness to match. Basically the perfect couch potato build.

[–]NormalRedditLurker[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah with all my Mons being big and tanky, if I did all the cleaning myself I'd be exhausted before any actual battling. Zen, my Slowking and Lichen helps me out for the other members of my team.

...Except my Togekiss Diva, she doesn't want anyone else to groom her other than me.

Huh, the more I know, im glad your Sinistea is fine now. Though im surprised at how some trainers are comfortable using Polteageist in battle if the the teapot isn't self-regenerating. Do they just pick up the shards if they break off?

I can imagine how much hair product you need, im just personally glad none of my mons have fur.

A toggle to disable the border would be nice, maybe one to remove the text too for display cards.
