>>22079141If the pokemon franchise had good standards, then yeah, but it doesnt and this is the best that we have. Thing is, since the pokemon fanbase cares more about looking cool than pokemon, instead of enjoying it (which, despite the DEM and other shit is a pretty good manga) we claim its "edgy" and diss it. Which would make at least a bit of sense if the pokemon fanbase had some kind of standards when judging stories instead of actively hating any attempts to it and worshipping a zmobie show.
>>22079174>but they're fine for what they areThe same could be said about pokespe.
>Adventures is too try-hardIt really isnt, its serialized on kids magazines for fucks sake.
>making characters evil for no reason, making characters asshole for no reason>giving character personalities is wrongWhich proves what I said above.
>The source material is twisted so much it doesn't even feel like it's based on the games.Huh? If anything, the problem is that it sometimes tries to put too much of the game, like in the rushed Platinum arc. If you honestly think what you said, you've spent too much time on the Internet or pokespe is literally the only adaptation you ever knew.
