The problem with the anime is the way every single series/region has ended to date. The ending is by far the most important thing, because it can make or break a story. And given that it always ends with Ash/Satoshi resetting and moving on, it makes every single event utterly meaningless in the grand scheme of things. PokeSpe at least reaches proper conclusions with each arc, and more often than not has some kind of lasting impact on the characters and world. Hell, Pryce's actions from before the RBG chapter had effects reaching all the way to the FRLG chapter. That entire arc literally happened because of Pryce.
>>37848575You're really hung up on that kiss, aren't you? Your shitty anime may have had an off-screen kiss, but PokeSpe actually had two leads getting together. Eat shit.
