>>21112976No, I don't like world. It was a chore to raise the monster and evolutions were an esoteric mess.
Finite lifespan forced further grinding and thee whole series was a mishmash of random genres because the prior game sold poorly.
Digimon story, the most pokemon-like one, sold well enough to warrant 7 games, one of which is coming out recently on the vita.
As for why I prefer pokemon the main games keep are fun, and the spin-offs keep the tedium away.
I had to delete my post and correct myself because I ended up contradicting myself at one stage of my argument. Probably a bad idea to be awake for so long
