lol what's your point? i'm not saying it's gonna go. it probably won't. i just find it ridiculous.IV's have been in the game since gen 1.
The current EV system as well as natures have only been in since gen 3.
If either were to go, it would be the one that had not been a part of the game since the beginning.
anyway, mewtwo has been without a new forme since gen 1. if anything were to change, it would be something that had not been part of the game since the beginning.
obviously not, as most people who battle will, again, have their perfect pokemon. there'd also be even more customisation if there was a third system that determined the power of all of its moves/the accuracy of them/etc that was attributed to that particular pokemon, but i don't see you fighting for that. it's useless and totally unnecessary, which is what the thread is about.There is more customization available when IVs are included. This makes every pokemon different, no matter if they are from the same species or not, which would fit in with your absolutely ridiculous ideals about moral driven pokemon play.
And get over yourself, pokemon is a video game. why would apply ethics to a video game? You can't bond with your game cart.
i find your clinging to the ideal that every pokemon be totally unique ridiculous, as i have already stated that there are tons of variables that will still make the casual crowd's pokemon largely unique, while at the same time being able to get something similar to an rng'd pokemon that a more savvy friend got that would be almost impossible to get during normal play if they don't know about the abuse of the game's inner mechanics. they would not win in a matchup with another player with such pokemon unless the other was
a) a poor player
b) had a poor team
c) had a team drastically weak to the non-rng'd trainer's pokemon, which has to do with b
d) the non rng'd person is using a team of ubers
wanna bet? ask a lot of people, and they sure as hell will tell you that they have bonded with their teams. i know for a fact that i did actually cry when my soulsilver stopped working, and i'm sure i'm not alone. take up the cries of those who played the first two gens and seeing the message that the battery is no longer working.
