stealing this image from my good friend @moonlit-ripples
#to be clear my relationship to competitive pokémon is like my relationship to real life sports#like let’s say basketball#have i played it myself? a bit. am i any good at it? no not really#not at all who am i kidding#do i have fun playing it casually? for sure#do i know a lot about it as a spectator? ya i’ve picked up all the main ideas#could i tell you what is currently happening on the scene? no#do i watch matches? i’ll never actively seek one but if it’s on in front of me yeeeeah baby!#do i love hearing everything i can bc i find it super fun? yessss#and lastly (this one does not also apply to basketball) do i understand all those memes i reblogged earlier? about 90% of them#asks#thanks anon#but fr i nerd out so hard i’m so glad i learned all this stuff#the extent of my knowledge and skill could never get me to win actual competitive matches other than getting lucky on silly ones w friends#but it helped me a LOT in-game in violet. especially in the indigo disk. couldn’t imagine doing that as a casual without just overlevelling#tbh#and even when it isn’t that hard. the indigo disk and actual comp made me realize that actual strategizing is FUN#it makes me so sad when people approach comp with such bad faith.#these guys loooove pokémon and they loooove their mons!#they are fun and they love fun (unless you’re one of the infamous ones like lavos lol)#wish ppl didnt look down on them for being nerds or act like they are lesser fans for engaging with the media differently
