>Game developers putting in the minimum effort because they know the brand sells on its own, making questionable decisions that disappoint literally everyone except the most autistic söy-drinking fans
>Stories that jump the shark in an effort to be cool and epic
>Fanbase imploding on itself with 50% infighting and 50% waifus/shipping/fetishism

And now we have the nostalgia-baiting game designed to get sales from 30 year old boomers, a la Sonic Mania. Next will be the tryhard reboot, Sonic Boom style. They're headed down the same road. And nobody in the Pokemon fanbase wants to admit they are the same because nobody wants to admit that Pokemon is just as much of an autism magnet as Sonic and that they're associated with it. It's hilarious and depressing at the same time.
