Hm, well here's a good question for y'all. If *insert name here* is trying to take over the *insert Region name here* Region, why do they give their grunts Pokemon that are so WEAK? I mean seriously, how hard is it to knock out a Rattata, Zubat, Stunky, etc.?

wild wulfie of the forest Hm, well here's a good question for y'all. If *insert name here* is trying to take over the *insert Region name here* Region, why do they give their grunts Pokemon that are so WEAK? I mean seriously, how hard is it to knock out a Rattata, Zubat, Stunky, etc.? Simply because they're grunts. By definition Grunt refers to the sound that a hog makes as well as infantry soldiers that are subjected to hard labor. Ever heard the phrase "Pigs for the slaughter"
In most cases, these guys are the low IQ, stereotypical jocks (sorry to those that are athletes, this will become very biased simply because I don't like them.) that are more muscle than they are brains and require simple pokemon to match their simple minds. Luckily for us, they aren't that smart or we'd have problems on our hands, just think back to battle frontier and the Battle Factory of HG, SS, and Platinum... those little guys can become quite deadly if you train them right...
ex. Ratatta- Endeavor under the effects of Focus Band and quick attack, you try to switch and you get hit by pursuit or if you're not affected by quick attack... sucker punch. Yep, Ratatta's moveset was made for getting the first kill.
Edit: On the other hand, Team Plasma also gets a boost post game... I almost had my butt handed to me by this one grunt and his outrage spamming Krookadile. Luckily for me, he was confused once my wobuffet came out and he tried to go for type advantage with Foul Play (counter FTW)
editedit:I've had this discussion before so I'm prepared with sources and everything xD

It's a mass production thing.

KomiTomiButterfly BloodyShinobiOokami My question is why does every time you fight one of the harder bosses in B&W they will spam heal with hyper potions even though it is their first pokemon????? Because theirs Noobs xD Agreed... But seriously, there is probably a good explanation for why they do it... for instance, I could understand Shauntal using them on Confungus because of its Mummy ability and drawing out Willowisp with his abnormal defense for a ghost type or if you have Marshal's Sawk that has the sturdy ability. Also a probably that I ran into with the Dark elite four's Scrafty spamming sand-attack and then healing to do it all over again. Basically its because (in their programmed mind) their first pokemon usually has the possiblity to direct the flow of the battle for their other pokemon.
This is just a thought beyond flat out calling them noobs...
