Sure, here’s the rewritten version:

So, here’s the thing about Pokémon games – the best ones aren’t always the big-name stars. Sometimes a quirky little dude with the perfect tricks just steals the show. But then, you’ve got Pokémon GO – which, um, kinda misses that whole point. It’s like they said, “Let’s make everything simple,” and then they just cut out, like, half the cool stuff. Seriously, they stripped away so many moves and mechanics. Abilities? Nope. Held items? Nada. Type immunities? Gone. Even some stats. It’s like, “Why you gotta do Accelgor like that?” Poor thing loses all its flair in the process.
And then, there’s this picture of Shelmet from the anime – kind of unrelated, but can’t help it; it’s adorable. Anyway, there’s a bunch of Pokémon whose thing is being super speedy, right? They’re quick like lightning and usually throw a wrench in battle plans. Speed’s not everything, though. If you don’t have a killer move set or strong attacks, you might just be the first one to lose. In Pokémon GO, though, poor Accelgor gets stripped down. Its Speed of 145? Cut down. Even its half-decent Special Attack of 100 doesn’t help much. It’s like you’re watching a sprinter suddenly forced to jog.
I kind of got thinking, “Hey, what if Pokémon GO had a re-do button for Speed?” Maybe it’s wishful thinking. Or maybe it’s just that I’m dreaming awake over my morning coffee again – you know how thoughts just drift. Imagine GO tweaking how Speed works. Pokémon like Accelgor, Ninjask, or Greninja could totally rule, right? Let them shine.
Now the real meat is this: how’s Speed gonna rock the Pokémon GO world? I dunno, but let’s dream. Instead of just go fast and hit first like the usual Pokémon games, maybe Speed there could make moves charge quicker. Or shorten the cooldown – just a bit – on those Fast Moves. Maybe it’s a stretch, but wouldn’t it be cool?
And here goes my wild tangent – Speed could break the mold, even outside battles. Pokémon GO is all about getting out there in the big wide world. Why not let faster Pokémon help with stuff like getting Candy while you walk your Buddy? Or hatching Eggs? It’s a thought – a bit flimsy, maybe, but I dig where it could go.
Oh, and hey – Speed Forme Deoxys would just be top dog if they brought Speed into the game. With a Speed of 180, it’d be like lightning in your pocket. Crazy, right? Maybe Niantic isn’t thinking about it now, but I’m holding out hope. Another layer on their game could stir things up just right. We’ll see if they ever get that adventurous.
Anyway, Pokémon GO’s handled big changes before. Mega Evolutions, Dynamax – they didn’t sit still. So, Speed would shake things up, sure, but isn’t that what keeps the game alive? Just one tweak like that, and some of those background Pokémon might really stand out.
