[quote=OTGBionicArm]I dont see how when there's only a handful of moves are luck based entirely, and I have yet to see anything using them. Everything else is just a understanding of the strategy of the game. Do tell me what's luck based in the story.[/quote]

[quote=Searz]Are you freaking kidding me? Are you seriously gonna argue that Pokemon isn't heavily influenced by chance?[/quote]

[quote=Khazem][quote=OTGBionicArm] I dont see how when there's only a handful of moves are luck based entirely, and I have yet to see anything using them. Everything else is just a understanding of the strategy of the game. Do tell me what's luck based in the story. [/quote] you should watch pokemon speedruns. It's like 10% skill (going through menus fast, proper movement, stuff like that), 10% remembering the route/remembering what moves to use and when to use them and 80% luck[/quote]

[quote=OTGBionicArm]Most games are influenced by chance. My arguement is that the combat isn't. I could give a shit less about anything that happens in the story. Not to mention everything in the game other than what wild pokemon you encounter are pretty much static and predictable. I don't believe any of the actual goals in the game (battling gym leaders and beating the elite four) are influenced by luck because it's all set in stone.[/quote]

[quote=Khazem]nothing is set in stone when you have things like critical strikes and the ability to miss[/quote]

[quote=OTGBionicArm]Hence why the metagame heavily favors the 100% accuracy moves. Again I don't play the game for the story. Most chance based things are either avoidable or banned competitively.[/quote]

[quote=Searz][quote=OTGBionicArm] Again I don't play the game for the story.[/quote] Again, it's part of the game. Stop the silliness...[/quote]

[quote=OTGBionicArm]Why don't you? You don't like the game, clearly. So please kindly leave the thread. This was made to have friendly conversations about the game, rather than argue about how bad or a waste of time it is.[/quote]

[quote=drakon136]It's almost as if Searz likes being argued with. First about Runaan's, now about Pokemon. On-topic: I will sell my soul to you for a copy of Pokemon Y.[/quote]
