>>54370535While I agree that the current battle camera is shit, I think that it all boils down to an endeavor on reducing depiction of violence in both games and anime.
For some years now every move in the anime just explodes in grey smoke like its a goddamn sin to show the contact between the attack and the Pokemon. They also changed moves like Bite being some energy fangs projection instead of a regular fucking animal bite.
As for the games, for some reason defeated Pokemon wont be shown wholly falling to the ground, also swirl eyes are banished.
They just want children who will play 10h tops of their games to buy it, so they make them the safest as possible. Meanwhile us autistic adults will still buy it anyway for either Kanto pandering (basedboys) or FOMO (/vp/)
