>>48726946>the downfall of the Pokemon fanbaseIf you were to say to someone the word "Pokémon", what do you think is most likely to be their first thought? I'd say it's Ash and Pikachu in Kanto. This is a Japanese multimedia series made by Japanese people in Japan. I'm sure that a Japanese person randomly hearing the word "Pokémon" will also immediately think of that, alongside Rica Matsumoto's beautiful voice shouting:
>GETTO DA ZE!And then the icon first opening of the anime, the one that they keep reusing and enhancing and making covers of, most people's first introduction to the franchise, that will be on their mind next. A few words later, and what you find is a joke about looking up a young girl's skirt without her permission.
People having fun won't "ruin Pokémon". You simply came on the Internet and saw what it's always been like since before you were born.
