>>51160486It's a subtle lore, as in it's not revealed directly to the player, but it's still very obvious and determined. It's genius and I don't know any other game or thing that has a lore so well delivered, adapted and stable. Like they never contradicted themselves and instead even after generations they put new elements to a lore that was presented before.
>>51160511Without lore, Pokémon is pointless, Pokémon themselves really become colored puppets that make no sense and I don't know how you would be able to enjoy anything about it if not that you are, indeed, autistic. Not even being a child or nostalgia work as an excuse,because when I was a child I valued the most the third legendary moments, the distortion world, the evil teams etc, the plot and lore in general. That's the heart of pokemon. And the lore makes it really mature and even gives a sense to cute childish faggot pokemon and why they exist, contrarily to the superficial view of it that only a 4 year old autistic japanese child that screams at anything colored on television would be able to enjoy, or you know, the filthy casuals that don't even know all pokemon.
If Pokemon didn't have a lore, even its same scheme would completely change,and it would end up failing like Digimon and similar. You wouldn't get the 2 couples, you wouldn't have patterns anymore cause they wouldn't matter anymore, it would become a "do whatever comes to your mind" mishmash of things that nobody likes, not even the filthy casuals cause paradoxically it all becomes too complex and heterogeneous to their eyes. If you don't care about the lore you're a filthy faggot casual and a burden to the gaming community, and if you don't understand it, even worse
