Is anyone else pissed off about HM moves? Fresh fom Reddit


Hi. I've been playing pokemon since I was about 7. It's been my life. But one thing's been bothering me a lot and I don't see anyone else discussing it.


If you want to play competitive, where you don't necessarily play with your favourite pokemon, you go to pokemon showdown, The battle spot, etc.. If you want to challenge yourself, you play the games normally. But I never actually get a chance to use my favourite pokemon to their full potential. Here's why.




The original pokemon games have a habit of forcing you to have HM slaves. At least 6 of them, but in most occasions 8 or more. You're stuck with those attacks stuck on your pokemon, but only about 2 or 3 of them are good- I'm looking at you, surf, waterfall, and defog. Meanwhile, I'm stuck with cut on my umbreon. Strength on my Arcanine. Dive on my Sharpedo. You get the point.




Call me a drama queen or whatever, I'm just upset. I want to use my favourite pokemon- and I want to actually use them for once, not be forced to fly or ride them to even get far in the game. Maybe gamefreak could introduce a pokemon game with HM moves completely removed? It's a push, but we all know how there are different pokemon "dimensions" so nothing is impossible when it comes to possibilities in the pokemon franchise.



It's a large waterfall. Would you like to use waterfall?



NO. I WOULD NOT LIKE TO USE WATERFALL.
