>>46659054>Pokemon isn't trying to compete with digital petsYeah. To be honest I think one of these days Digimon is going to end up with its own Stardew Valley at some point.
Where some indie dev is going to come out with a monster raising game like Digimon World, but with mechanics closer to Tamagotchi or Neopets and it's just going to roll over Bandai's half-baked RPGs.
