>>55512230Because Pokemon Killer was never a term devised by genuine fans of a monster collector that are excited at the prospect of Pokemon finally having competition, it was a term devised by Pokemon's marketing teams themselves with the express intent to murder any potential competition by forcing any mention or acknowledgement of it to also include a reminder that Pokemon as a franchise exists, meant to unconsciously sway gullible consumer sheep back into Pikachu's paw once the fun with the brief diversion is had.
There's a reason monster collecting games that debuted after Pokemon's own debut, even those that aren't turn-based RPGs, are all considered "Pokemon ripoffs" or "Pokemon-likes" by the common masses.
