Competitive Pokemon emphasizes an understanding of game mechanics, team organization, and battle tactics, rather than cramming four moves of differing types on your Pokemon and picking whichever one is super effective. In this world, that 999 attack Pelipper you hacked as a joke to sweep your friend's team isn't allowed. This is the world of competitive Pokemon, the art of playing Pokemon to win. So you decided to battle your friends on Wi-Fi, but after pounding them mercilessly (or having cried 'Uncle!' one too many times), maybe Pokemon began to get stale.īut there is more to this game. You endured this for the sake of training your loyal Pokemon, and after turning them into the fullest they could be, maybe you wanted more.
If you're a dedicated trainer, you've probably battled the Elite Four so many times they sound like boring class lectures.
