I mean, I'd argue casuals benefit from this too. Coming from a casual player myself, I like battling my friends but sometimes things happen and we need to cut it short. Like we accidentally accepted the duel when one of us hasn't been to the pokecenter yet. Would be real nice to be able to quit the fight and redo it in an easy manner. Or if you accidentally accept a duel request from a player super uber more powerful than you. It'd be nice for casuals to be able to leave the battle and move on with their lives instead of force disconnect or sit there and wait for their one-way trip to the pokemon center to finish.

If that's truly how it's designed it needs to be redesigned to allow for overlays because that's a ridiculous amount of work for any time they want to add something new. That being said, regardless it'd still be a lot of work to implement this. Every single cosmetic item in the game now and in the future would have to be redesigned for each pose. You're literally multiplying the work needed for customization in this game for something that doesn't have a very large effect.

To be fair though, we're strictly talking about PvE here. You can't exactly be competitive in this game without a properly trained team of min. level 50 pokemon anyway. And the level unlocks only from the PvE experience, not the PvP.

I feel this is very necessary. I'm playing this on my Switch using LegacyOS and it'd be really nice to be able to get rid of those elements.
