i think this should be an interesting discussion. o:
so! of course, in pokemon games, you as the trainer have always had the ability to heal or even revive your pokemon in the middle of battle should the situation warrant it. an interesting counterpoint i've heard to this though, is that using items feels like "cheating" in a sense, mostly because the AI doesn't use items (excluding gym leaders and elite four members that use full restores).
my question is: how do you all feel about using items in battle? whether it be healing or reviving your pokemon, or even using x-items if necessary? do you see it as having an unfair advantage, or do you see it as far due to it being an option, period?
