For those of you that play Pokémon competively...
...Why is it that Pokémon like Weavile and Alakazam are allowed to have terrible defenses instead of putting any sort of investment into improving their defenses?

I've never heard of it... Are you talking about the card game? Have you considered that the game may just be imbalanced? |

I was thinking that exact same thing
 (minus being 17). I'm guessing it Route44 was referring to young teens.

Well, I mean, there are some competitive elements to it...Link battles, WiFi battles, EV training, picking out Pokémon based on stats, etc. To each his own, I suppose...I'm a big fan of the games, so...yeah. For me, age has nothing to do with how much I enjoy something...I still occasionally watch Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon (not as often as I used to 'cause the newer shows are starting to suck...bad).

If you would have asked elementary kids from about 6 years ago as well as some teens they had no problem playing Pokemon on their Game Boy Advances or with cards.
Now it is passe'. And what is "in" now will soon be passe' as well. It is the Link Battles that greatman05 points to that has a fun aspect. And I agree, the stuff Nickelodeon puts out now are terrible. |

Surely competitive Pokémon playing is a sign of the Apocalypse, no?
