>>32748117The franchise is already dead. Nu-Pokemon as of now is like Sonic, the games getting steadily worse and worse as it fails to catch up to more modern competitors. Nobody does turn-based combat anymore, and for good reason; it's a clunky, archaic system that only worked when hardware couldn't handle more involved gameplay. As time passes by, only the hardcore autists, furfags and waifufags desperately cling onto the franchise. And much like Sonic, one of the tell-tale signs is the constant nostalgiafag pandering in the latest installments.
