>>33855718>>33855733both series already had dark overtones and implications though, Pokemon had dex entries and some aspects of its lore, while YW has dead cats being ran over, people killed and their grudges turning them into yokai and so forth. Handled differently on each franchise, but both have their moments.
>>33855851I'd argue that Z-moves is a copy of Level-5's signature move gimmick that's basically in all of their main games (Inazuma eleven, LBX, etc), where all characters an unleash some kind of flashy super move, announcement and all.
