Story Time With Ibanez - Episode 6: Why Do People Take Pokémon So Seriously?

[ThatsMyLatios]

In battles I try to stay happy and enjoy it, but honestly when I get haxed and get really annoyed especially when it costs me the game :[

[KameloxYx]

I agree with this. When you lose you can either rage and yell or take it like a real person with a brain.

idk ibanez people these days ya know

[blubberychiknnuggetz]

THe question is, why do you make it even a bigger deal by making this video

[IbanezObsession]

@blubberychiknnuggetz I'm sharing my opinion with everyone that watches my videos. Is there something wrong with that?

[blubberychiknnuggetz]

@IbanezObsession Well yeah. You should really just not trash people for the way they look at a game. You should really respect THEIR opinion.

I use whatever Pokemon I want, no matter the tier. In Gen IV, I had a team with 3 NUs, an uber, an UU and an OU because I like those Pokemon and I won a lot of battles, but I'm not saying that I'm the best trainer in the game.

I don't use pokegen, entry hazard or tiers. Also, I don't use smogon sets (I can use them for advice, but no an exact copy, like most cocky people) and and I pull my weight in battles and I'm a good sport, so why people take a GAME do seriously?!?!?

[CowboysandMileyfan]

@thesupercobalion I really like how you think with that. Pokemon's not about winning. It's about fun.

[thesupercobalion]

@CowboysandMileyfan Hey, thanks

[TheMadRRConductor]

one thing ive noticed with some people in the competitive battlers community, is some like who you mentioned who get way to serious and angry like that, they seem to have forgotten something important. what happened to good old sportsmanship? you lose, then so be it and you still shake the other players hand or at least the equivalent of that. did people forget how to be a good sport? anyway well said.

I get serious (not all crumby though) I mean like seriously into the match like I honestly enjoy the whole spirit especially wifi they get really intense :D

[thesupercobalion]

A little bit off topic, but this is the one thing that I don't like about OU (despite it probably being my facorite tier.) People just expect you to use "Serious" teams when you play OU. I just feel like telling some of these people that it's just a game and I can play for fun if I want to.

[CowboysandMileyfan]

I did get a little angry at the start of my battling career. I have learned to calm down about the hax, but the jerks in the community...still trying to work it out. And with Ubers. First Ubers battle I had on the DS, I lost 1-0 after I was up 5-2 (weakened Pokes & my opponent had a full health Arceus) and the battle wound up on PMP. I also don't care about subs/partnership. All I want to do is entertain.

PS: I'm sorry for that double freeze hax. :P

[IbanezObsession]

@CowboysandMileyfan Yeah I know how you feel. Lol it's fine :)
