Why did Pokemon go from a standard game series with an anime artstyle to total weeaboo pandering since Gen V?
>every single character is designed to be cutesy now
>gameplay is now railroaded more than ever before in favor of typical power of friendship and ideals shit
>BW2 protag is fucking Sailor Moon
>dressup is a thing, and you can make your character become a swim top and ripped socks-wearing bimbo of all things
>"friends" who never stop pestering you, like Cheren, the 4 assholes from XY, ORAS May, and Hau
>PR Videos that let you show off how cute your trainer is
>BW2 lets you date some kawaii desu ne idol girl with pink hair and a shy personality
>ORAS shoehorns a May date and makes her act like a typical moeblob
>contests went from showing off your Pokemon with style to complete idolshit, compare tuxedo and dress Lucas/Dawn to Brendan and May's otaku-pandering clothes and how over the top everything is
>Mega Pokemon as a concept, with the power of friendship activating it, along with the trainer making a ridiculous anime transformation pose
>everything about Lillie
>merch now focuses on making overpriced high quality figurines of the female characters, now making Pokemon no different from garbage anime
What the fuck happened?
