I play Pokémon primarily for the Pokémon as you're supposed to. Anything that isn't exploring the world/learning the lore of the Pokémon/using Pokémon is sometimes neat but always superfluous. Romantic relationships being the absolute least interesting thing in stories ever. Especially if you're not female.
Do harlequin books still exist? Because if so that's obviously more up your alley than the game/show/etc. in question no matter which series you're talking about.
