>this shitty argument again
please explain how referencing Charizard is as bad as copy-pasting Viridian Forest and the Snorlax on the bridge

It's not okay. It's still dumb. It's just having a Charizard Bridge or a Pikachu-shaped whatever is a "I'll let you go with a warning" kind of offense. Having two super special Charizard forms for maximum pandering is absolutely grounds to write up a ticket.

And you’re fully obsessed. Why aren’t you focused on whatever is going on in your less relevant country?

Yeah when people complain about pandering it's definitely because of things like optional namedrops and not half of a game's regional dex being reskins of Kanto Pokemon or the majority of new mega/gigantamax forms going to Kanto Pokemon
Or just outright shoving the Kanto Starters in your face 20 minutes into the game (who have mega forms and your new Starters don't)

>GF resorts to genwun pandering in XY and the games sell like hotcakes
>continue genwun pandering for easy money ever since
feels like SV toned back the pandering a bit though and they’re selling like crazy, so maybe there’s a shift going on

Is that true? Because like 75% of the dex was remixed versions of Kanto mon.

Yes. We're you not around for BW's release? There was a lot of seething
Being a reskinned Kanto isn't the same as being Kanto, so normalfags didn't care (nor did they notice the dex being Kanto references in the first place)

>The starters,earlygame mons, legendaries and shillmons are ugly, weak or both
>The anime has no faith in Ash building a competent team and gave him the worst companions in the series
Then they go panic mode and do things like putting lucario on B2W2's earlygame and bringing back Charizard for the anime

Yeah I think they've learned that there's a happy medium. People don't want to lose all their old friends until the postgame, but they also don't want Teragigamega Charizard XY with a special Charizarditeium Z handed out in every game.
