Zac, I'm not even talking about the judging, also what is being creative when playing in a pokemon battle? As far as I would think about, it means that you don't always go in for fast sweepers or trying to stall or baton pass with all of your pokemon just to power up one. It would mean to use moves that you normally wouldn't use with that pokemon, To do something that most people wouldn't consider doing.
I think we should at least promote doing that over just trying to go in for the win because there is more to things then just winning which most people fail to see in a Pokemon game. It takes the fun out of battling if I know the other people is just going to try to go in for the kill because it makes it less enjoyable because this is how Pokemon battles normally go: Spikes/toxic spikes/pointed stones or a combination of them, item switch, baton pass, have pokemon that had a assload of defense and special defense use a healing move over and over and over again while they slowly kill your pokemon, one hit kills all over the place, and thats it. Thats seriously it. Thats all that happens during a pokemon battle. Do you know how boring that gets to see the same shit over and over and over again?
I guess I just want to see people actually use something new for a technique rather then using the same old moves that everyone and their dog uses.
