>>39658668The impression of GameFreak I get is that they had a runaway hit early on, but it's never what they wanted to saddle their horse to. The whole company seems jaded with the Pokemon franchise and want to do something else, which is fine, but they're going about it in a very pussy-like way. They need to just admit their heart isn't in it anymore and give it to another company. Unironically give it to bandai-namco so we can have Pokemon X Digimon
