In terms of pokemon this is already hands-down the best generation in the series. Every single last one so far has shown exceptional effort in terms of design and concept, and they’ve gone out of their way to choose interesting, distinct, and regionally thematic organisms as basis.
And, you know, I think the reason we’re seeing this much effort is because, between XY and Sun/Moon, pokemon experienced its very, very first SUCCESSFUL competitor in twenty years, with a little franchise called Yo-Kai watch soundly beating it in game sales, toy sales and television ratings across the board.Yo-Kai watch’s rabid popularity has died back down a little in Japan, but still the strongest rival Pokemon has ever had. See what some healthy competition can do?
Everybody wins in the po-kai war.
