>>57237212there are simply no other monster collectors that capture the feel of pokemon
pokemon is a monster tamer with a sports theme going on (gyms, trainers, soccer/football in galar and racing in paldea), monster creatures are mostly based on real world animals or cultures, gameplay is simple and easily accessible (with optional competitive), the tried and trusted formula is still there (young kid sets off on an adventure, a whole region to explore, hundreds of monsters to see, challenges, saving the world from baddies, etc)
the only other monster collector that mimics this is roco kingdom (but it has a magic theme instead of sports)
the problem with pokemon is the quality
they really should stop dividing their staff into multiple teams and focus on one project at a time, that's all it will take to fix pokemon
