>>39251583The problem is everyone who was ever involved with the Pokemon Franchise since inception.
GameFreak's the problem because they're hack developers who refuse to learn out of Nippon Pride and still being able to print millions in sales every year.
Masuda's the problem because he's senile and out of touch.
The Pokemon Company's the problem because they've escalated the franchise to such a money-grubbing degree that they HAVE to force GameFreak to crap out a game every year so the merch train can keep running.
Ishihara's the problem because he's a King Jew who wants to seek out maximum profits and hoard it all for himself with no concern for the quality of the products, which is why he's so damn interested in mobile and will likely try to sever Pokemon's ties with GameFreak and Nintendo if possible so he can get even more dosh and turn the franchise full-mobile.
PokeMania's the problem because it created an impossible-to-meet standard in order to be identified as a proper "alternative" to Pokemon.
Japan's Culture is the problem because everyone's a bunch of mindless consumer drones and hopelessly addicted gamblers, which is exactly why the gacha model exists and how games like FGO and GBF became so huge, which inspired Masters to exist.
Nintendo's the problem because they refuse to touch Pokemon's workings with a ten foot pole since it prints money anyway despite the decline in game quality and continued bullshit from GameFreak, as well as the obvious signs that TPC's desperately trying to claw away from its parents in order to have more profits to itself.
(You) and me are the problem because we played a part in letting Pokemon get this big somehow, some way. Whether it be by buying the games, buying merchandise, giving ratings to the anime, spreading the word about the franchise, discussing it, or, well, literally ANYTHING to do with Pokemon.
It's not just a few bad parts in the Pokemon Machine, the entire damn thing's fucked and solely exists to print cash.
