You didn't read the whole conversation then because if you did you'd see he was asking a question as he doesn't follow the games, if you have another save file you'd have a main save file ready to go for when you trade the monsters back so if you got to Mewtwo on both files you can immediately have 2 Mewtwos off the bat in 2 playthroughs where as the one save forces an additional playthrough to make it more tedious. You'd make it easier with an additional save to farm. |
But you'd still have to reach Mewtwo in two different playthroughs, even with multiple save files, so you have two play through ecaxtly as much of the game... (BTW I'm not suggesting you can reload an older save, just something like Guacamelee where you can have simultaneous playthroughs, because you have several slots).
Without multiple saves - you have to reach Mewtwo once, trade it to a friend, reset and do it again.
With multiple save files, you have to reach Mewtwo once, trade it to a friend, create a new file, and do it again. Both take the same amount of time, so it's just as tedious and thus still deters farming.
