>>39009656you know, i'm glad people are finally starting to bring up how shitty the other aspects of pokemon are besides the games. game freak is an absolute joke, but tpc is far from blameless in the franchise's decline.
the pokemon anime is unironically the worst anime series ever made. it's been 20+ years of watching paint dry. why hasn't a $90 billion franchise produced a season with even a fraction of the ambition of digimon tamers? why does every frame of animation in sun/moon look like the off-model frames from other anime? why does the pokemon company think the franchise would suddenly go bankrupt if they ever switched away from ash, even though he's a stagnant career loser who's never allowed to develop as a character?
how has pokespe been allowed to continue on as someone's officially-licensed deviantart fanfiction without any supervision to rein it in? why did anyone think shit like reburst was a good idea?
the anime and manga, along with the merchandise, are the reasons why the games apparently can't get delayed anymore. how is it acceptable for both of them to be so shitty too?
