How do I cope with how shit Pokemon is now? I love Pokemon so much but I can't support it in it's current state, but I don't know what to do to fill the void. I've found a bunch of different things to love instead of Pokemon, but Pokemon is just so all encompassing that I can't get away from it. I haven't played a Pokemon game since SM but I'm still here every time news drops because it's what I spent my teens doing.
It's bad enough that GF is making the games awful, but the popular opinion is that the games are fine and anyone complaining about them is just entitled, so I can't even vent to my friends about it without them getting upset.
I don't even want to be mad about Pokemon anymore, I want to stop caring about it entirely, but how can I do that when I spent the first near 20 years of my life with it as my number 1 favorite thing? What do I do, /vp/? How can I free myself from this?
