[Pokemon] Why do all my opponents in the wilderness always have full health when I have to slog it out with a million potions and berries?

I'm just trying to walk from my mom's house to the store, and everyone on the road wants to duel me. I have to scrounge for berries, run away, and stockpile potions, and I'm *still* limping into duels with half my Pokemon fainted.  But everyone else always has a team of fully healed Pokemon with no status effects and full PP.

How is it that I'm rationing out my Cut PPs against every Zubat, while little Lisa has five untouched Magnemites after wandering the same cave for a week?

Why do you think they're standing around? They're resting their Pokémon. These people are (usually) locals, so while you might be scrounging for berries they already know the best spots that are just off route. Wild Pokémon are much less likely to challenge a stationary target, so after training for a bit they'll settle in on one of the more traveled areas for a picnic and to enjoy the scenery and wait for a challenger to wander by. They're also way more likely to use repels.
