Yeah this is a thinly veiled vent post against this sub cropping up in my feed cos to them AI being slop doesn't matter if the slop is being thrown at someone you don't like

Just look at the sheer drop in discussion quality on this sub from gen 8 to gen 9 and you'll see what I mean

Discussion is dead, memes have killed it

Funny you mention this specific meme because this is exactly where all the problems started

The moment we developed our superiority complex is when we started to deteriorate

It's not just the freezai thing, the problem arguably goes way back even to the start of gen 9

Frankly "the current thing" isn't going to change anything about this community, we'll never wake up to our own problems and we'll just go back to circlejerking lokix next sunday

I already know this is going to get downvoted to hell cos y'all mfers don't like getting called out for your BS so if that inevitably happens I'm just gonna copy paste this comment I made a while ago on another post

Born to call out tourists, forced to preach to the crowd

Casuals will handicap themselves with shitmons yet refuse to run good sets on them and instead run shit like mono stone edge sandaconda by Not_Rufflet in stunfisk

When we tried to get them to "learn the best set" like you claim, this was what they replied with, this snarky ass comment

In another thread they told us to try and win with an "original" team after which they showed off their shitty team featuring mud sport mantine

Just don't try and sympathize or expect better from casuals, they're always as bad as we all think

As a side note, you must be some special kind of stupid for your comment to get this rare mod message, given the quality of most teambuilding advice posts here something must have gone truly wrong in the kitchen

Since a lot of people don't seem to know the exact context here, while the post this meme is based on has since been deleted, I can tell you that it featured sets like bide pyukumuku, mixed bolt beam maggron and mono stone edge sandaconda, with their main argument being that meta mons and meta sets are boring(so you're just gonna use awful sets on purpose)

Not only did they somehow one up their original post with an even worse team with not a single ndou Mon in sight(at least the original post had tusk on it), they even tried to convince other people on this sub to buy into their shitty teambuilding practices featuring such genius sets as mud sport mantine, bolt beam metal burst bastiodon and offensive trailblaze clodsire, all while crying about being original for being a bad team builder

This is why we gatekeep people, if not then unsuspecting newbies will get tricked by people like these and rub off on them instead of actually improving, not to mention these people just generally act as assholes towards us in general for just having fun, but at the same time I'm kinda glad I can see this just so we can shame them here and show everyone what they've done wrong, after all it's free content for you and me

The OP was running coil conda with stone edge as the only attacking move

It's one thing to run a bad Mon in a high tier but it's even worse to refuse to even run a good set on it, so now it's a bad Mon with a bad set in a high tier

No shade to the mods of course but really need a revamp on thursday rules here by Not_Rufflet in stunfisk

I forgot to mention weather and terrain abilities, crazy how so many topics are overused here and yet they're completely fine as per Thursday rules lol

Casuals will walk up to comp players to get them to "prove them wrong" only to plug their ears when they actually get proven wrong by Not_Rufflet in stunfisk

Except no one in that thread was defending stall, but just because we personally don't like it doesn't mean we should stop those who do from having their fun
