Digimon anime have better storytelling than the Pokemon anime. Ghost Game alone is better than all pokemon seasons.

But design wise, Digimon look worse than Pokemon because there's literally zero consistency among digimon designs.
Their design philosophy is just whatever random shit that came to their minds with no rhyme or reason. Digimon could wear clothing and ripped jeans, or they could look like mechas with military missiles, or look like humans / anthro OCs, or look like horrifying eldritch monsters.

At least Pokemon designs are consistent. The philosophy being to make them fictional animals you could find in the wild, while also not making them too creepy or too overdesigned. I can't think of a single pokemon that looks as creepy or overdesigned as digimon's worst offenders.

Legendaries are always an exception. Only 1 dialga exists and it must be summoned from another dimension. You won't find a roaming pack of dialgas in the wild like your common pikachus and pidgeys.

and you seem to have a problem with Magnezone, which is a good UFO alien pokemon. More of an extraterrestrial creature, but still something you might find in the wild.

Objectmons typically have a lore that justifies their existence in the wild.
The Magnemite line isn't entirely natural, it's magnets and screws that came to life and then spred in the wild. However you typically only find such Pokémon close to urban areas, whether still active or abandoned.

As for Legendary Pokemon, they follow a different philosophy because they aren't meant to look like any random fictional animal, but rather like ancient gods, concepts that humans would work into sentient creatures through imagination. Fundamentally, how early forms of religion and spirituality came to be.

I don't know about Dialga specifically, but there are many legendaries which have entire species.

Robots and space aliens aren't wild animals.
>>53613203
If you need lore to justify a design, the design failed. You could do that with any of the Digimon shown above. "Gargomon's machine gun arms are actually organic, and his belt and jeans are actually just skin". If Gargomon was a Pokemon, his design wouldn't suddenly become good just because that was written about him. However, that's precisely what Pokemon does when it comes to species like Machamp or Sawk.

>>53612912
Both designs are hit and miss. Pokemon tend to have to many blobs. And digimon have to many cosplay humans.

Story wise, digimon blows them out the park, it's not even up for debate.

Game wise it's pokemon all day every day. You can't say you like the digimon games because each one is completely different to the last so it makes it hard to say your a game fan there.

Complexity, it comes down to pokemon again, digimon is cool that you can, devolve your digimon and keep them powerfull. but it's also to much.
To get a wibblebibblymon you need to digivolve frogmon twice, devolve it into caterpillarmon let it shit itself then slap it exactly three times during the night cycle, digivolve it into dickgirlmon devolve it three times back into toenailmon then praise it 32 times feed it fried chicken digivolve it into wristwatchamon have it shit twice and find the right square to stand on at 3 in the morning to get it to evolve correctly... Or it will turn into numamon and you have to start again.

Do wish it was more like the Vpet in where you could in theory keep it alive indefinetly if you keep taking care of it well. I guess a way to force you to complete the digital encyclopedia. Monster rancher has this problem too but its mitigated by the ability to fuse monsters as well as freezing them so even if they die well...

That's because digimon can be anything, and that's great. It allows for a literal infinite amount of variety whereas pokemon is going to run out of designs eventually.

but Digimon are not animals, but being made of data with intellect, if anything it is better to call them aliens since they are from a different world.

in both Adventures and Gosh Game animes end with humans trying to stablish relation ships the Digital World, which is why Tai become a diplomat for the Digital World, and Hiro and co. trying to stablish a city where humans and digimon can finally properly meet.

I'll be excited when i see something. Digimon games don't have a good track record.

>with more than 1000 there far too many forgotten pokemon

Unfortunately that goes to any game where you don't have a large enough number of creatures available early on.
Pokemon's issue is you either have shit early route pokemon, or you have shit late route pokemon. There's no point in catching the fearow later in the game when the first route gave you a talonflame.
But that in itself is the problem. Like in monsterhunter stories or SMT you HAVE to abandon your early monsters you may like, because they are just shit in comparison to later creatures or would require you to power level to scrape by.

pretty much all of them. the least Pokemon one is without doubt is the one least Digimon as well as the kids don't have Digimon compaions but they transform into legendary Digimon warrior like power ranger.

but overall Digimon animes are not about friendly competition at all, even Tamer where Ruki wanted to train Renamon to be the strongest Digimon the battles were still above life and death, but that was not even the main plot at all.

the even first anime is all about a group of kids transported to different world, and their life were in more and more in danger:

You I both know that majority of pokemon are stupid, it's really 20 or so a gen you like and the rest are trash designs that have steadily gotten worse per generation. Meanwhile the digimon have gotten better or remained the same.

Was basically a jrpg in the form of anime, the digimon were characters with growth and their own arcs. Honestly the kids just seemed to be there for status quo, Shoutmon could have easily been the main character. Also giant robots

No humans, a conflict in which the world's anti-virus wants to wipe out digimon and any are adapting through x-evolution

Another jrpg like story in which chosen children inherit the wills of ancient digimon in order to save the world from complete annihilation

What you're not realizing is that convoluted evolutions are the digimon equivelent of finding rare or legendary pokemon, not of pokemon evolution. Since almost every digimon, however strong, is linked in some way to some early route mon, they need to gatekeep the stronger evolutions proportionately, or beelining straight to the strongest digimon possible and ignoring everything else would be trivially easy.

Child and Child II (especially Child II) are completely pointless stages and only exist to serve as artificial lengtheners. It also doesn't help the names of evolution stages make no sense, and localizers mixed up terms to make it even more confusing. They should really just call them Stage [X].

Now where's the online game for it? They don't really expect people on average to play physical card games in the modern day, right? In a day where TCGs made a massive comeback due to online play? For a series about digital monsters? Bandai wouldn't be that stupid, nobody would.

The fact it's been three years since the TCG released without any kind of digital client, singleplayer game or otherwise tells me they're really resistant to the idea like Konami was for YGO. As far as I know there's a scene on Tabletop Simulator but that's not the kind of automation people are craving.

Digimon can evolve into *anything* from the same general family that's one stage higher, though exact affinity for each form varies depending on environment and the individual in question. E.g. Numemon evolves from Child-level Digimon who were mistreated.

The specific Gabumon in the Adventure anime evolves along those lines when being pumped full of Yamato's emotional energy, but other Gabumon will not.

Digimon who evolve temporarily with the aid of a human tend to achieve the same forms each time, unless the human's mental state significantly changes (e.g. the human becoming filled with rage and hatred will turn them into something more monstrous). Whereas wild Digimon who degenerate somehow will often evolve into something completely different next time.

IIRC Agumon normally evolves into the Tyrannomon (which has a more similar body shape), and only becomes Greymon if it has particularly high intelligence and fighting skill.

However, Greymon's huge body causes it to tire easily in intense combat. MetalGreymon is the result of it turning to cyborg enhancements to overcome this weakness. Originally this process caused it to turn from a Vaccine to a Virus type with rotting discoloured skin. However, it was later refined.

Combining the data of multiple Perfect-level cyborg Digimon (MetalGreymon's left arm and chest, Megadramon's upper head, MetalMamemon's cannons, etc.) produces the Ultimate-level Mugendramon (aka Machinedramon), which was one of the franchise's first "final boss" types.

Alternately WarGreymon is an optimised Ultimate-level form of the Greymon line that strives to the highest ideals of Courage, compacting its power into a smaller humanoid form. Its finishing move "Gaia Force" is an extension of the Greymon line's connection to Dragon Veins.

Digimon Tamers, where Guilmon is from, has a very mature story with one of the main characters digimon literally dying permanently. But still watch Adventure first because it's great too after the first arc. And Digimon is one of the few kids anime that adults will probably enjoy more than children, so don't be dumb and just watch all seasons.

The Greek Mythology has animals with cerberus, humanoids with clothes like Medusa and other weird things like Charybdis who is sometimes described has being a monster in the shape of a whirlpool. It also has Hecatoncheires, who are humans with 50 heads and 100 arms, sometimes represented with weapons. No doubt that, if guns existed at that time, they would have use them in their stories. Digimon has a lot of lore, with sometimes different versions of things, like some greek myths. So it's like a modern mythology with Yggdrasil, Homeostasis, Iliad, Homeros etc.

>At least Pokemon designs are consistent. The philosophy being to make them fictional animals you could find in the wild

Armarouge and Ceruledge? Gholdengo? Also Digimon World is not the wild. It's a different world where every logic around atoms, molecule and cells does not exist. Stop trying to think that the logic of Pokemon should apply to Digimon. They're 2 different things.

>I can't think of a single pokemon that looks as creepy or overdesigned

That's what make Pokemon boring and redundant. As for the overdesigned part, you're just used to Nintendo designs. Watch Tales Of, Final Fantasy or most JRPG, monsters have the same level of details as Digimon if not higher.

Perhaps. But then again, the most overdesigned pokemon (Mega Rayquaza, Eternatus, various Gmax forms) are just gaudy to look at. And this overdesigned philosophy is simply the norm for digimon designs. Overly simplistic designs like Voltorb are lazy, yes, but I'd rather have those instead of designs with a billion unnecessary bells and whistles.

>If you need lore to justify a design, the design failed. You could do that with any of the Digimon shown above. "Gargomon's machine gun arms are actually organic, and his belt and jeans are actually just skin". If Gargomon was a Pokemon, his design wouldn't suddenly become good just because that was written about him.

That's not what I said. I never argued that Magnemite has organic parts, but it is part of GameFreak's philosophy to have a group of creatures that, kind of like Yokai, are born from humans' objects.
GameFreak's philosophy isn't simply "fictional wild animals". A good chunk of Pokémon are part of this group but not all.
Pokémon have different inspiration also based on the habitat they're meant to populate and most objectmons are meant to live in or recall urban areas.

Sawk are Throh, much like some other Fighting Types, are humanoid and meant to drag inspiration from human activities. Not all Fighting Types are humanoid (Mienshao, Flamigo ...), but humanoid is a populated subgroup for this Type.

The point is that, unlike Digimon, Pokémon's philosophy is to never make a design too charged with details and complexity especially if it's meant to be a common creature and not a Legendary.
Pokémon are meant to communicate themselves right away, their design must be easy and quick to read at first glance.

This is very different from Digimon's design philosophy and it is not better nor worse, it merely depends on the viewer's preference.
Personally, I can't stand how most Digimon look, there's too much going on for my taste.

They're still Pokemon. You cannot find liger and tigon in the wild because lions are from Africa and tigers from Asia. But you wouldn't say they're not animals or doesn't look like something you could find in the wild (even more when you know that platypus, naked mole-rat, angler, pink fairy armadillo, blobfish or even the tibetan fox do exist in this wild). Same goes for Armarouge, Ceruledge and Gholdengo. Even if you can't find them in the wild ; due to the fact of them being Pokemon, they still should look like they do. Because they're Pokemon.

> And this overdesigned philosophy is simply the norm for digimon designs.

This "overdesigned" philosophy is a part of it, not the norm. And again, you are just more familiar with Nintendo designs. I didn't gew up much with Nintendo and I have no problem with Digimon designs in genreral, while I find many Pokemon designs to be boring, tame and unsurprising. Not saying that every Digimon designs are great (I don't particularly like Chamblemon, Espimon or LovelyAngemon to cite the Digimon we had since 2020), but they do manage to surprise me most of the time and I do enjoy searching the details I wouldn't see at first glance. The only designs I would agree to be overdesigned are some of the X-Antibody Digimon from As'Maria, like Sleipmon X or Ogudomon X who are messy in some parts (I have difficulty finding the 4th arm of Sleipmon X and don't understand the center part of Ogudomon X). Outside of that, I never had any problem with grasping the concept of Digimons.

Millenniummon is the ultimate jobber of the franchise. It's supposed to be some abomination with paradox immortality that consumes space and time and parallel universes, with events in multiple continuities tied to its existence (it created itself by turning the Digimon Kaiser evil and giving him the idea to create Chimeramon). But it goes down like a chump every time. In one appearance it even seems to have been defeated by a pair of Child levels off-screen.

When it shows up in Colon it's genuinely an enormous threat, with its fingernails being the size of mountain ranges and requiring a kaiju battle with two legendary dragons to beat it down. Then the smoke pans out to reveal a ZeedMillenniummon the size of a planet, and the cast can only look on with utter despair.
...but then WarGreymon randomly throws a Spirit Bomb at it and it dies in one hit.

Ghost Game had ZeedMillenniummon show up as a freaking monster of the week. They do have a character scream "IT WILL DESTROY ALL REALITY", and it reverts to sealed form rather than dying, but it's not that hard to stop.

No, you can't find Armarouge/Ceruledge/Gholdengo in the wild. This is straight up cherrypicking. Arma/Cerule need a special ancient set of armor that only 1 guy in all of Paldea seems to have. The common Charcadet will not find such a rare evolution item in the wild. As for Gholdengo, those only evolve with 999 coins and the wild Gimmighoul only has 777 coins at most. Another rare evolution that the average wild Gimmighoul will never evolve into.

Dropping into this thread to say Tamers is highly overrated. I mean it's fine, it's competent, but I wouldn't put it on the same tier as Adventure. I don't think Tamers has the same depth as Adventure, not in its characters or in its background lore. Even 02 feels like it has more depth than Tamers, albeit much sloppier execution. Tamers has some really interesting ideas like the Wild Bunch that sound so much cooler than when you didn't know them. SHIBUMI is cooler when there's a mystery behind him. But it has the bad habit of giving the explanations and then those things lose all intrigue and are just regular things. The Wild Bunch isn't some former covert group who did a bunch of controversial stuff years ago until they all split never to speak of things again. They're were a just a small university computer club in the 80s who made the basis of Digimon in their spare time and sold the idea to Bandai and then graduated, they were normal nerds. SHIBUMI being missing and in a coma for years is cool, but when he comes back he's just like any guy, there are no machinations. The Digital World and its Dante's Inferno layers is interesting as a concept, but it's just really boring and empty and they barely do anything with it. Takato goes from meek and sensitive boy to knight in shining armor, Lee goes from pacifist too afraid of his own power to walking artillery, and Ruki goes from tomboyish power-hungry loner to graceful team support. Solid character arcs, but they're simple in concept.

"Overdesigned" is a buzzword that means very little. I think you mean that designs are busy, i.e. has too many disjoint features which convolutes the impression of the whole, which is a thing in all art, not just character design.
For example, pic related is highly-detailed, but since all the details are relatively similar, it avoids looking busy.
Meanwhile, Mega Rayquaza looks like its features and color palettes were slapped together with little regard for what was already there, so it ends up looking busy, even though it's far less detailed

yeah, yeah, keep telling yourself that.

But if you were tasked with making a 3d model of that digimon in the picture you posted, you're gonna quickly find out "overdesigned" isn't a buzzword. So many million polygons just for one digimon. It honestly doesn't need to be this complex or overly complicated.

And on the topic of Frontier, it's pretty decent. It uses a different central theme to prior series, that being about learning to understand each other, work together, and build bonds, and each character deals with this in a different way. I think Frontier's main struggle is that it takes a story premise and stretches it across 50 episodes. It takes until around episode 14 or 15 for them to understand the premise (though to be fair it took 18 or 19 episodes for Adventure to establish it was in the Digital World), and that ends up being used all the way until around 37/38 when they beat Cherubimon. And then Lucemon drops in and it's like "Yeah, we knew this was coming based on the change in the opening around episode 3 and the backstory that was given there and again much later when he started acting again".

But the thing I see people complain about blow my mind, and that's the losing streak against the Royal Knights. Those were honestly some of my favorite episodes for the conclusion of various characters arcs and putting the story's message into practice again and again. But I honestly think this goes over most people's heads and they just focus on who wins the big fight. Maybe it's a cultural difference and western society focuses on winning vs losing instead of the story and themes.

When I watched all of Digimon in Japanese a few years ago, I was dreading Frontier (despite having seen the English dub as a kid and generally thinking it was fine then) because general internet discourse. It ended up being a lot better than I thought, and I find it really fascinating how people seem to easily follow a narrative perpetuated years ago and refuse to actually think outside that narrative. "It was decided it was like this by someone years ago and that's how we think now, you can't challenge this". Pokémon fanbase goes through the same shit though.

I didn't say they were in the wild. I said that any Pokemon should follow the rule of looking like something you could find in the wild, like the rest, even those needing the help of their trainers with items and such, the same way we did with animals like ligers, tigons, leopons, zebroids, grolar bears etc. We cannot create an animal in an armor body or with a belt biologically. We did manage to create fluorescent rat, fast-growing salmon, or goat who can produce "silk milk"

But we are far from The Island of Dr. Moreau.

As for Espimon, I liked the character and his skills in Ghost Game but I'm still not a fan of the design.

Oh that's rich coming from a fag that uses buzzword phrases like "your argument is circular".

The fact of the matter is that some monster designs CAN be more overdesigned than another monster design. If you compare Pikachu's design with this Jesmon >>53615610 , there's no doubt that Jesmon is easily way more overdesigned than Pikachu. And it's more overdesigned just about every other pokemon as well, aside from very few exceptions like Eternatus.

Maybe you personally like edgy designs like this (and I mean edgy in the literal sense, because this thing is so spiky and edged), but I prefer designs that aren't a cluttered clusterfuck of spikes.

I think Kouichi was the weakest character in how his character didn't fit the theme of the story as well as the other characters, he served more to elevate Kouji.
>Takuya loves sports like soccer, but he's awful at teamwork, expecting everyone else to follow his lead. He has leadership qualities but lacks the experience to properly lead, which ends up with the first 20 episodes having him flub most fights due to bad coordination while eventually becoming overconfident when they do win.
>Kouji is the lone wolf who has trouble forming relationships with people out of deep-rooted separation anxiety from his lack of a mother. He's the most unwilling to work together. I think the weak parts of his character was the hilariously overdramatic "I don't HAVE any siblings!" early on which instantly tips the viewer off this is going to be relevant and his backstory showing that he was out to buy flowers for his stepmother to show he accepted her, so his character arc should be farther along than the start would suggest.
>Izumi is a repatriated Japanese girl who lived in Italy. She struggles to adjust to Japanese life and relate to her peers, who shun her because of her differences. When her only burgeoning friend ends up being picked on for associating with her and starts to drift away, Izumi loses her patience and snaps at her, eventually deciding it's better to be alone.
>Junpei is someone whose relationships are all entirely superficial because he only uses superficial means to get people to associate with them. He'll do magic tricks and offer chocolate, and he seems to get along with everyone, but he fails to make meaningful connections or friends because he doesn't try to connect with people on a personal level. He's more inherently selfish and doesn't like not being in the limelight, but becomes more selfless and helpful to others as the series progresses.

Tomoki: (cont) He comes to see Takuya as an older brother figure and admiring his heroism, inspiring him to overcome his own faults. He goes from a spoiled whiny child with an intolerance towards people who are tough on him to an upstanding boy who maturely displays his growth in front of the kids who bullied him.

Kouichi doesn't really have the same personal struggle. He's this series' Green Ranger, following Hikari, Ken, and Ryo. His circumstances relate more to Kouji, being manipulated by Cherubimon, and eventually how he's even in the Digital World compared to everyone else, the implication that everyone else is data while he isn't.

I didn't take into account Legendaries, because they're divinities. As for Armarouge Ceruledge and Gholdengo they're not legendaries. Despite them evolving in uncommon ways, they're still linked to the others common Pokemons and therefore have no reason to felt so out of place. Liger, tigon etc are linked to other animals, feels like animals and looks like you could find them in the wild, even if, in reality you can't. If you want, I can use most of the humanoids and object mons but it would result in me saying the same thing.

The original point I tried to disprove was:
>>53612984
>At least Pokemon designs are consistent. The philosophy being to make them fictional animals you could find in the wild

So it's either you agree with the first or with the second sentence, but it cannot be both. It's "They're consistent in term level of design, even if some of them doesn't follow the main philosophy of being animals you could find in the wild", or "They're animals you could find in the wild except for some uncommon ones who are therefore not consistent with the rest" (even if I do think I'm saying the same thing here, I feel a little numb repeating my point again and again)

It's not overrated. The reason why the original show has more depth is because they always bring back ss1 for lol reasons. Thus, They must always dig up the old plot and add more details to have a reason for the ss1 cast to return. Here are the reasons why Tamers is so good:

In an interview, I don't remember exactly who said this but the gist of it was that the idea of fusing between Digimon and Tamers was so great, to the point that they had to bring it back as Spirit Evolution in the next series (i.e. Frontier). If you go to youtube and search for keywords like Digimon Tamers Matrix evolution (it is called Biomerge in the US), you will see a lot of comments as if they shit their pants when Dukemon first appeared, not counting Sakuyamon.

The second one is the plot of Tamers. The head writer is Chiaki J. Konaka; who has been the head writer of many other popular series including Serial Experiments Lain, Ultraman Gaia, etc. Thus, it's hard for this series to have a shit plot. It's just that most plots of long-running series in Japan at that time (even now, LMFAO) were filled with filler episodes and only tied the plot in certain episodes, there would be a happy ending in the end so the ending is kinda bland. They did it so that they could have enough episodes (around 40~50 episodes if it isn't get axed).
Also, the story of Tamers is tied with another big character, Ryo Akiyama, who is the main character of his own series (this is quite a long story, you should go to the wiki pages to find out, ). So if they really want to stretch out Tamer's depth, they can, just that they don't want to milk it for reasons.

I already know all that stuff about Tamers and Ryo, I've read Konaka's blog and production materials, I've watched Lain, I know his stuff. It's still overrated. Adventure, without 02, without the drama CDs, without tri. (obviously), without Kizuna, has more depth than Tamers and its extended material. Tamers is very upfront with what's happening, I don't think there's much subtlety. It's solid, but it was something I could take at face value. I think it's straightforward but executed fairly well.

In 2020, I watched Adventure, 02, Tamers, Frontier, X-evolution, Savers, tri., Adventure:, and Kizuna. I listened to their CD dramas, read their interviews, watched their movies, read dissections, read V-Tamer, read up on all the v-pets and cards and games, and I did it all chronologically. As in I read V-Tamer chapters in relation to when they came out between episodes, I know why they made certain production decisions like only teasing Demon in 02. I looked at card expansion release dates, game release dates, guidebook release dates, and I had a spreadsheet of everything in relation to each other. I could tell you whenever Digimon was entering a new era. I knew Atamadekachimon before it appeared in Adventure:, I understood the wireframe Golemon reference, I read Digimon Web. I learned Digimon's history, its first international success in China, how that affected 02's direction. I made lists of the credits and animation directors and could tell you which animator was drawing what frame.

But I am 100% serious when I say that Adventure has more going on behind the scenes and with its characters than Tamers does. Adventure may have been written from arc to arc, and its animation was the worst outside of the movies, but it still has the most character depth because it's not upfront with its characterization to the point people still don't fully understand them to this day.

Then I see no point in arguing more cause my point is to show why most people appreciate Tamers.

I have also re-read your comment and agree with your points.
>Solid character arcs, but they're simple in concept.
However, for me, it's all the same as Adventure 01 (yes, without 02, without the drama CDs or any kind of things Bandai gave us) because I don't see anything deeper than that. I feel like it's a bit personal rather than saying it is overrated. I also like 01 more than Tamers but I feel like I'm a bit biased because I watched 01 when I was young so it left a strong impression. It's like Ruby Sapphire is so much better than Red Green but I still choose Red Green. I won't be surprised if someone finds Tamers better than 01 because it's really good.

And yet Pokemon explicitly doesn't treat Legendaries that way. They regularly have randos in the fiction use Legendaries as normal members of their teams. They aren't "ancient gods" they're just big animals, and most of the time Pokefags will fight you over this fact.

With Adventure, it feels like there are background details about the characters you really have to pick up on. Like how Sora's crest is Love, but that her weakness is that she can't love herself, she seeks approval through being helpful to others because that is the only way she gets validation. The conclusion to her character arc is to choose to live for herself and love herself to live freely not tied down by any fate that was chosen for her, something she struggles with near the end. Her partner is a bird because birds represent freedom, her freedom to choose, and her name means sky in Japanese. The ending to 02 was actually planned to be the ending to Adventure, but got pushed back when they were asked to make another series. There was a lot of background information that was made for Adventure that they go into more detail for 02, but it's information that was relevant in Adventure. For example, Digimon are the modern manifestation of youkai but through a digital medium. They are an extension of the human collective consciousness and Digimon partners are specifically extensions of their human partner's psyche that promote their personal growth. The year 2028 was chosen in the epilogue because that was the year that the human population would reach 8,589,934,592. There was background information that the number of Chosen Children would double each year from 1995 until it would equal the human population in 2028, meaning that's the year everyone has a Digimon partner.

There's so much background information for Adventure alone, especially when you start looking into Mamoru Hosoda's stuff. I've tried looking into Tamers but Konaka didn't write a whole lore book on the world and characters like Kakudou did for Adventure.

Absolutely false. The old Digimon aesthetic was it's peak, and only recently with the Pendulum Zs have we seen them return to that style. Digimon is at its weakest when it's just knights, with lines like Jesmon being the most egregious.

She was trying to take after her mother which wasn't making her happy, and she didn't want to be bound to being a Chosen Child and have to help out all the time. She felt guilty over not living up to the expectations of her loved ones. They say the line when she's in the cave near the end of Adventure, they say it in that short, and Yamato says it in the movie, how even though they were chosen and it was their destiny to do what they did, it's not their fate. They have the freedom to choose how they live their lives. Sora breaks down and doesn't want to be the daughter of an ikebana grandmaster or a Chosen Child, she just wants to be Takenouchi Sora. It's the same problem Taichi and Yamato are having in the movie where they've lost sight of themselves and are going through the motions of adulthood, and despite yearning for the past, they know indulging in it would be nothing but escapism. They need to find a healthier way to continue into the future, to do things true to them. Even though they come to their respective conclusions, it's too late by that point and the three of them lose their partners. But they move forward knowing that they can one day meet again.

>Tamers is very overrated by westerners. It was a flop in japan until they shoved ryo into it.

The data show that Digimon Tamers did somewhat better than 02, with 6% more episodes in the top 10. Some of the more sizable holes are mostly in areas where it was generic fighting of Devas in the digital world, though these included episodes with Ryo's introduction and Beelzebumon's introduction (ep28-31).

Btw, because I also have knowledge in the industry, if you have already set a plan for a certain TV series, it is very difficult to change, so it is unlikely that they will add a character in the middle.

Not Xros Wars. Code Crowns were essentially gym badges for saving an area. The guardians of these areas were essentially Gym Leaders. You also had the two rivals and an evil team.
That is the most similar to Pokémon.
Not Frontier either. That was a glorified travel quest - first to Seraphimon’s castle, then to Ophanimon’s, and finally to the areas attacked by the Royal Knights. Frontier also has a comic relief villain team and an antagonist duo. Dynasmon and LordKnightmon were practically Butch and Cassidy. Lucemon was the evil team leader like Cyrus or Lysandre.

That's weird because I always thought the opposite. While I do agree that the shading in the first years of Digimon was a little to much at times, it did become good quality shading that let you see the details of the form of their body afterwards. Pokemon is just put clearer circles above, darker circles below and call it a day. It did create some bad shadings like, to cite one example among others, Grookey. Its mouth is suppose to be prominent, but the shading follow the same curvature, its right arm has the shadow of nothing. You could say it's the shadow of its body but it can't, because, due to some clearer color on its mouth and forehead, we know there is a light in front of him and being the shadow of the body would also mean that the whole arm should be in the dark. The clean curvatire also make them look like they're made of plastic despite being a mammal.

Tajiri made a comic where he emphasized how he only wanted Pokemon to be beasts and pets, and he has quotes where he's talks about being against things like Team Rocket's talking Meowth. Maybe he's sitting behind the scenes and ordering these things be put into the lore.

Tamers is literally the adventures of Chris-Chan and Sonichu but digimon and there isn't a single worthwhile character or moment other than anything involving impmon who is the only character with a real arc and any actual growth.

Aragaki Yui? She stayed until the end and was also here for the movie. The only thing she couldn't do was a character song due to a contract with her company forbidding her to do so, because she was already a popular actress and singer. They took her for the role of Yoshino because of her popularity but people generally agree she wasn't good. She did continue her career as an actress (I recommend Legal High) and singer, but voice acting was never her thing.

I also checked the other main characters with female VA, none of them had a change of VA midway. Which character are you talking about?

I still don't see the problem here. It lost to Adventure but the data proves it is better than many other series including 02, so it cannot be said to be overrated.

Can you give me the link where they said that they were forced to do it because the series was tanking? Cause this is what Konaka wrote in HIS BLOG

>http://www.konaka.com/alice6/tamers/characters/ryo-e.html

As I wrote above. Once a plan has been set, it is difficult to change. According to Konaka, the inclusion of Ryo was planned before Konaka even joined the team. So what you say is exactly the opposite.

Oh my god, you're sooooo funny. You just took one of the less liked Pokemon and said it's better than any other Digimons without explanations. Nobody did that before. What a valid point! You're, like, the Amy Schumer of Pokemon. So funny!

I think you skipped too much biology classes if you think that visible legs is what make the difference between a dog and a larva.
Fusamon:
A Slime Digimon whose whole body is covered in soft fur. Although it is a Digimon brimming with curiosity that loves to move around, it spends most of its time sleeping due to it tiring easily. When danger draws near, it will emit a high-pitched, threatening cry called "Puppy Noise".

As far as we know, "whole body" can include legs. As for larva, I don't remember them having droopy ears or even visible ears at all, as well as a snout. They also don't have the time to be sleepy at all. Finally, I don't remember larva being able to do "Puppy Noise"

Not necessarily. Bulcomon is from a chinese app and while he still didn't appear in a japanese game (he is still recent, 2019, so during Digimon Survive production), he did have his own Dim Card, as well as several TCG card with his best pal (as described in the Reference Book), Penmon.

I'm not complaining about the Digimon Collectors design. And the designs are not incompatible with each other. It just looks like the Toei Animation's Nefertimon is stretching her back legs.

Pic related is the exact same vibe I get from looking at digimon illistrations like OP's. Just feels dirty, and like they'd be painting in some alleyway filled with trashcans

Because it's impossible for 3 Digimons to defeat a giant Digimon as tall as a 50-story building. Pokemon is just teaching you how to be realistic

>Digimon anime have better storytelling
Only until digimon tamers (season 3) after that the series went fucking downhill to an unsalvageable mess to the point bandaid had to cater to ogfags by bringing back the og protagonists and retcon them YET AGAIN! out of their established season 2 and 3 lore to the point no one likes it and it flopped once again because they designed it in the modern anime take of slice of highschool generic shit and even the animation is garbage
>Design wise digimon looks worse than pokemon
Bad bait, digimon designs went to shit AFTER season 3 though because they just started shitting out any design as you said instead of keeping the formula of what made 1, 2 and 3 popular
>At least pokemon designs are consistent
Pokemon went to shit after gen 4, gen 4 design were the last good ones, gen 5 started the decline in Pokemon design by shitting out the worst designs in the franchise and shitting generic designs from that point onwards to today where it's literally unsalvageable
>Tldr
Digimon could have been bigger than pokemon if they sticked to Tai and his gang and kept them as kids forever like ash, digimon skyrocketed in popularity due to the protagonists being little kids who little kids could identity to, unlike ash who was a bigger kid and looked older
Now bandai wants to revive that glory by bringing them back as adults for the nostalgiafags but the emotion isn't there anymore, they fucked up when they let Tai go back in the 90's

You know how hard it is to organise a group to do basic dnd, let alone fucking pokemon/digimon dnd.
The reason I'm playing vidya most the time is because I can just pick up and go.
If I wanted to play with any of my friends i'd have to get a day off, and fuck my sleep scheduele to maybe possibly get on the same time zone as them.

Or set up a game in work with the autistic sonic lad.

Is that even the weirdest ghost game episode with a digimon lusting for a human? Then after that there's the necrophilia episode.

Pokemon is more relevant than your flopped franchise.
