>>36283270This shit makes me cringe, they nitpick and completely ignore what would counter it to try and make their point stick.
Pokemon - Pokemon were made to look more kid friendly, will use Vanillite as a bad design but things like pile of sludge, a literal pokeball and a puff the magic dragon rip off are completely god like designs.
Characters - Uses Ilima as an example of all male characters past gen 1, but completely ignore the other 95% of male characters that are masculine, 'Females are walking tropes' you can tell the guy who made this is an incel, no, the females in later games aren't tropes, ones a teacher, one runs a museum, one is a pilot, ones a photographer etc but no, a swimmer, a flower girl, and a psychic are totally not female tropes at all!
Rivals - I will agree on this, but it's a kids game, teaching kids that it's ok to have friendly rivalries, if they were to do edgy, mean rivals every gen it would get stale fast.
Evil Teams - Each team had a different goal and more in depth stories other than 'Lol I'm gonna make money'
Region - You telling me Sinnoh didn't have exploration? Unova had fucking exploration and hidden areas everywhere, it wasn't until 3D that the games went to hallways.
Fan Community - People who bitch about anything past 151 don't deserve to call themselves fans, you don't like anything else they've done in 20+ years, you are not a fan. Vocal fans know what they want from the games and will call out Gamefreak for constantly catering to you instead of real fans.
Fan games - Are all shit regardless.
