I am playing Pokemon Violet at the moment and it is a total bore. I have played the game so many times and I just want to run around catch Pokemon and battle.

I do not need another tutorial about what a Pokemon center is. Or a tutorial to tell me that I need to use a Pokeball to catch a Pokemon.

Can we get a "I've played this game 100 times" mode where it just saves the tutorials and lets us play the game?

Honestly, even as a fan of Pokemon for decades of this point, I don't see a problem with the game being targeted at children. I have children now and I am all for games that target her age group instead of exclusively mine. Even if it's a flagship series like Pokemon.

I don’t have an issue with it but I least they would do what Zelda does and ask you if you know this already. It makes the tutorial parts less of a drag

This is kinda what I was hoping for. They could even have an option buried in the settings to turn off tutorials.
