In 1997, chief anime writer Takeshi Shudō decided he wanted to worldbuild more and wrote Pokemon: The Animation. In it:
>ten-year-olds have to file taxes and can legally consent to sex
>Gym Leaders are forced to bribe Trainers because four losses in a row means they lose their jobs
>Ash's mom resents him on some level because she had him young
>Nurse Joy tells Ash not to evolve Pikachu because ones that evolve too young can't control their electricity and give themselves fucking heart attacks, and Pikachu straight-up die if they push themselves too hard in battle
>Pallet Town is a crime-ridden hick town full of washed-up failed Trainers, with Oak's ancestor being the only person to even become an average Trainer and getting elected mayor for it
>Brock tries to fuck Misty despite him being 15 and her 10
>Brock's siblings are all from different women
>Ash says damn
Despite all of this, the devs of Legends Arceus looked through this and said "We can use this", and stole the thing about Pokemon changing size from it. Legendary.
