What if in an alternative timeline Pokemon never become popular and will only be seen as a Japanese niche JRPG, but still retained the original SOUL to this day?

Then no one here would play it as it would have even less postgame and yie boxfillers would've been dumped back in the gen 3 of tbe alternative timeline.

>Red and Green sell fairly well, not the surprise hit they were in this timeline, but enough that it wasn't deemed a failure
>not popular enough for an anime, however, and merch is highly limited and even more niche
>without an anime, Yellow never happens, Lugia is never made for M02 and Silver is never conceptualized leaving Gold as a standalone title
>Gold itself ends up looking like an entirely different game due to there being no rush in development to strike while the iron's hot, most likely ends up as its original vision of a romp through the entirety of Japan
>without Pokemania being an all-too-profitable abomination or there being too much demand, The Pokemon Company is never born and Gold is decided on as the finale of the series
>GameFreak either learns how to become competent developers and makes assorted soulful titles or drops out of the industry entirely
>Pokemon becomes a fondly-remembered cult classic notable for its novel concepts and retro charm
>the Monster Collecting genre finds itself flourishing in the near future due to Pokemon inspiring people to make games like it, albeit for the purpose of expanding upon its ideas in their own unique way rather than to capitalize off of a global phenomenon
Sounds like the best timeline to me.

Old Pika will always be the superior Pika
He actually looks like an electric mouse and not some retarded oversized rabbit-rat abomination

Something where is put relatively much creativity in and is relatively kino. There is put in thought and it is received in that way. Someone literally puts his soul into the thing he created and touches someone else's soul via this creation, thus there forms a connection between two souls

Nah it would've gotten an anime but i would've been like a 13 episode deal that would've been worse than the OS season. Probably would've been mock for all eternity as well.

It's kind of this. Technology has made it quicker and easier to produce art, so art in media has become less and less something drawn and more something produced. Basically if your art looks like graphic design, its soulless.
