how do i cope with the fact that pokemon will never be good again? The downward spiral at this point is irreversable. the repeated success of game design made for profit over quality has made it clear game freak will never change, and the pokemon company as a whole will continue their belief system of "we focus on accessibility to everyone over player and viewer reviews"

There will never be a time a pokemon game will make me excited again. There will never be a Pokemon game that will capture the series' potential again.
God. it hurts.
