History Awesome / Pokemon

It's widely believed that the AI of the various post-game battle facilities (e.g. the Battle Tower) will either cheat with RNG manipulation or outright counterteam you if your win streak gets high enough. While there is occasionally cheating, it's typically restricted to illegal movesets or abilities that aren't available to the player. Nothing in the games' code lets the AI alter the RNG and enemy trainers in the facilities have preset teams with some minor random variances. The series just has a considerable amount of luck baked into its systems, so everyone will inevitably run into bad luck at some point as they continue to increase their streak (and good luck as well, but people tend to remember more when they got particularly unlucky). This additionally applies to the Stadium series too, where people will swear up and down that the RNG is rigged against you, but they're just forgetting all the times the RNG benefitted them (you're not going to remember all those unnecessary crits you landed when you were knocking out some trash mon regardless, but you will remember when the AI got a crucial crit that made you lose the final battle of a cup and have to start all over)
