It really is the former, grinding and running around hatching eggs in 3/4 games is not what the competitive Pokémon scene is about. The competitive scene is about strategizing, planning and reacting to RNG, not about how many times do I beat a game to get the perfect Enamorus

Knowing that, It’s up to you to take the leap of faith. I recommend trying if you have never played a Miyazaki game before. If you…

What else could it possibly be?
