Since Netto missed it so much, Merry Belated Christmas from Mr. Pretentious.
To address your statement, BinaryPeaches, there's nothing wrong with it, but it's not exactly something to be proud of either. It's like talking about watching anime on YouTube or some other streaming sites. It's fine since either way, you get the general feel. But what people who watch anime in high quality don't want to hear is stuff like "my video is taking forever to load" or "I'm going to load up the next 10 parts of the next episode now". It annoys us because we're happy to see someone take an interest in what we do, but then we find out the someone only does it halfway. Or something.
An alternative argument is why do you care so much? I'm fine with nickname chatter because it affects absolutely nothing and is directly chosen manually by the player and not the game, but to talk so vehemently about natures, a random occurrence in the games, when they make absolutely no difference the way you are playing. I mean, you're not EV training or anything, so that difference in stats isn't going to affect much. And why would you need that stat boost? When it all comes down to it, you're just going to spam Super Effective moves when you're 5-10 levels above the other Pokemon while spamming revives and full restores when you need them. It's an unnecessary waste of time and effort the way I see it. Moreso than Nuzlockes and Solo runs.
Do you not understand how I, someone who understands competitive Pokemon, feel when this extensive metagame gets compared to something so low as just chatting about natures for in-game teams? You're not the one who should feel degraded here. I'm the one who felt degraded by that statement and as a result, my previous post.
tl;dr: MAXIMUM AUTISM
Oh, and while I'm here, Roswell's CSS signature stretches the page vertically. JSYK
