>>56303034>scarfs, reviver seeds and gummiesI haven't seen a scarf used in a clover story in the same way the games do because that would be explictly talking about stats which is also meta commentary. Reviver seeds are a pretty weird narrative element to have, since they basically decrease the stakes of anything dangerous that could happen to the characters, like
>>56298877 pointed out, there's no reason for everyone to not have a full bag of those. There's also the fact that some injuries that the characters suffer can't be healed by things like oran berries so they have to be bandaged or healed by other methods... which isn't what happens in the games, it's schrödinger's canon and ends up being whatever is more convenient which eventually breaks the immersion in the world. Gummies are used as another type of food instead of doing the IQ thing from the games, again, that's meta writing and it hasn't been included because it's lame and I'm pretty sure the writers know that meta commentary doesn't read well and yet they keep the canon as inconsistent as possible.
>narrativeanon, that's the point, you've changed them enough that they're an entirely different thing and yet they're still a fucking magic CD that gives free knowledge. The whole point about changing them is because TMs are an inherently gamey thing, games aren't always translated 1:1 to other mediums because they're completely different things. From a narrative standpoint having a character just freely gain knowledge comes off as cheap every single time it's done. I don't understand why it's specifically on a KFC story, in lore, he built the dojo and is the fighting type character, which is why I complain so much about him getting double team for free, it's something that inherently goes against his character and even the point of that story specifically. Deus ex machina can work, in that story, it doesn't.
