Are you in favour or against using legendaries in your campaign and why is it universally considered a pussy move. Are legendaries just meant to rot in my PC?

Legendaries make an easy game already easier.

I'd rather style on these niggers by not using them

If I like the design, I use it. Same as any other Pokemon.

>>55787446
I used to be against it but these days I don't really care. Some of the box legends do feel cheap to use in the campaign, but stuff like the birds, beasts, musketeers. meh. they have less bst than pseudos and aren't really game breaking. the main thing that holds me back from using them is they usually just come in too late when I already have an established team.

>>55787446
it really just depends on the legendary
if your ass is using uxie in a playthrough i wouldn't bat an eye but if you're rocking primal groudon then i think less of you

Pretty much this.

>>55787446
For me, unless an NPC button uses a legendary, it just feels like a cheap move. You're allegedly a great trainer, but you show up with a legendary.

Throw a kid a Rayquaza that will listen and he'll be pretty powerful. Taming and training one sure, it's impressive, but using it in tournaments is cheap.

If you sweeped the league with a team of route 1 shit mons no one would doubt your skill as a trainer. Show up with a team of legendaries, and it'll always be affixed with "He's good, but..."

>>55787491
same I was always against using legends
but recently I've wanted to try it just for something different, I've been playing these games for 25 years at this point
>>
>>55787446
just use what you like dude, if it's a legendary use it, if it's a normal pokemon use it. That is the fun of the game.

>rot in your PC
Anon, you aren’t supposed to catch legendaries, you need to take them out!

I exclusively use Legendaries, because I am pretending I am fucking GOD in the Pokemon game and none can stand against me. I also use Gardevoir because I want to fuck her. Don't fucking tell me the correct manner to play or enjoy a kids game, you faggoty little competitive rats.

You tell them, sister.

When I was little, I always liked to imagine what the trainers I'm battling against would think of when I use a legendary

what do we even call these non-mascot legendaries that are part of a trio? You'd think the fans would've given these mons their own fanmade classification by now that becomes used throughout the fandom similar to pseudo-legendaries.

>>55787446
I usually do. Giratina and Ho-Oh are awesome

catching a level 70 rayquaza in emerald and sweeping the rest of the game with it solo is a pussy move

It’s only okay to use them in Gen 4

Explain?

>regular difficulty game
Extremely cringe, they make the game hilariously easy.
>cancerous legendary-spam ROM hack
Acceptable, using legendaries is fine if the enemies are using them.
>>
>>55787446
Generally I save Legendaries to only use after reaching The Hall of Fame once. Exceptions being B/W just because it is thematic and occasionally on a replay of a game, I will bring one member of the region's trio so long as it isn't too broken.

the only time the use of legendaries is acceptable is during postgames where the fangames or romhacks start shitting out legendary fights against you

Why do all pokemon have the same base accuracy and evasion? Wouldn't it make more sense for some pokemon to be very accurate and others very evasive?

Should change the damage formula to include glancing blows and mini-crits too. Let acc/eva work as a tertiary set of offense/defense that works in tandem with physical and special.
