I think Blaydcor's actually a tourney player - he slings around EV numbers well enough that I think he's at lest indoctrinated into the theory, if not the specifics.
I think, and he can correct me if I'm wrong, that he belongs to a subset of the adult hardcore who feel that the games have either become needlessly complicated (probably not, though, since you don't have to do anything crazy to get through most of the game - though I wish that you didn't need Nintendo events to get all Pokemon) or that the tourney scene is something almost apart from the game itself.
Not saying he's necessarily right in that, but I think the problem lies in the lack of invigoration in the game outside of the combat system. Outside of that it has become more potentially complicated rather than more fun - the fun ratio is exactly the same as it was years and years ago. That's enough for me! Might not be for some people.
