What grinds my gears? I would have to say people who hate Pokemon, or anything really, for no reason or just insult someone for liking something. I understand that not everyone enjoys the same things, but it's infuriating when people say "Pokemon sucks, it's only for little kids", rather than "Personally i fell that Pokemon is s childish game and i would prefer not to play it".

Event pokemon, I don't care about existing pokemon eg a shiny rayquaza (sure it would be cool to have one) what I really don't like is the event pokemon you can't get any other way Mew, Celebi, Deoxys, Genesect, Keldeo and Victini, (which doesn't bother me as much as it was widely publicised and you got it online) the only way you can really get them now is to trade and c'mon what are the odds you find someone willing to trade one that is not hacked.

I've got a spare Japanese event Meloetta I'd be willing to part with, if I had access to wireless so I could access the GTS

The route gates in pokemon D/P/Pt. While riding my bicycle, it immediately goes away once I enter the gate, then I've gotta re-equip the bike after I exit the gate. This may seem like a pretty small thing, but I don't know about you, but I go through gates on a bicycle.... alot. I just don't understand why you were able to ride a bike through the gate in R/S/E without having to re-select and then the next generation, they had to make it something little that is just... frustrating.

I would have to say that what grinds my gears is how serious some people take things. Here on the forums, debate is good. It's awesome to have two clashing opinions. However, I don't understand the masses of people who get offended by things like other people's preferences, or even those who are offended "on a personal level" with what happened to the 4Kids voice actors. You don't see the voice actors making a big deal of it, and it happened to them! Seriously, this is supposed to be fun. I think more people need to take things with a grain of sand and start realizing that no matter how passionate you are about your opinion, it's an opinion. It's not right or wrong. Literally everything in the world around us is subjective, even math and science. They're only true and proven because we accept them to be so. Given that perspective, we can't begin to think for a second that anything in the Pokemon universe is anything but subjective. Have your opinion, debate, and provoke thoughts, but do it in good spirit and with the humility of knowing that your opinion is neither right or wrong.

With the amount of popularity/spotlight Lucario gets from fans and in the media, I wouldn't be too upset by it.

Thank you! This, a thousand times this. I get a teeny bit upset over how they gave a Mega Evolution to Mewtwo and suddenly, I'm bashed to no end!

Someone says this. FINALLY.

There also exists the fact that anything cannot exist without its opposite. Due to this, it is thanks to others' opinions that yours exists. It should be appreciated. :)

I know what you mean. Some people can't accept that people have different opinions to them.
