How seriously do you take competitive battling?

I'd say I don't take it too seriously, but when I do competitive battling I put in a little more effort then I would in a normal battle x). I try use strategies and predictions, to get victories, but my best method is just purely attack to be honest :P. Items plus certain abilities, work well too :3, but other than that, I do competitive battling for fun. I don't mind if I win or lose, if I win, YAAAY :3, if I lose then at least I can learn from my mistakes next time ;).
 
I've been partaking in competitive battling for a good 4 years now (ewww whyyyyy), and I definitely don't take it as seriously as I used to. I honestly just do randbats most of the time, but I actually made a terrible NU team so I'm actually getting back into the swing of things.
 
I started battling competitively back in Diamond days but I lost wifi before HG came out. Now I'm into it again: building different teams and EV training all sorts of pokemon. I even entered the Winter Competition in PGL... which is the first time I'm competing since Diamond so I don't take it too harshly if I lose. I know there's a bunch of people online infinitely better than me.

I will, however, get so frustrated if I lose to any of my friends/siblings/their friends because I know they don't train/breed like I do. Thankfully that has never happened lol. I beat the **** out of their hacks too.
 
I try not to take battling seriously no matter the odds. However, some people I might battle brag about themselves and saying that they're opponents are weak which is uncouth. Remember, a true Pokemon trainer does not brag about his or her skills in a battle. He or she gets prepared for the next battle whether the result is victory or defeat.
