>>53839929I'm not that anon but there was definitely some weird disinfo thing where Lewtwo tried to present it as "only dumb Amerimutts received the dumb ugly shitty scans where Ivysaur is blue and now the dumb Amerimutts don't like my awesome new scans because they're nostalgic dumb Amerimutts with no quality standards," basically implying his scans were only used in Japan and the old scans were only used in an American player's guide, and ignoring or just not being aware of actual evidence to the contrary that you could find in 5 seconds if you looked up Japanese merch, ex.
>>53839848Also his simps were backing him up and trying to falsely present it as the next Pokemon shrinking thing in terms of being something only Japanese were aware of and dumb w*stoids weren't, like "lolol I see a bunch of Japanese fans retweeting Lewtwo-sama's posts and being absolutely INCREDULOUS that Ivysaur was ever depicted as anything but green" even though in this case that's pretty unlikely.
Maybe he and his simps have somewhat backpedaled on it now but that was def going on for a while
