>>58476000Simply repeating "you're actually the disingenuous one really!" back at me isn't quite the rebuttal you think it is.You also just made up an entire person to be mad at, because I didn't say anything you mentioned in that post. If you're sincerely pretending to not understand the difference between a story written with intent and a story written with an excuse then the only thing I can say is that maybe you should read more books instead of playing games, it may help you understand the issues people are seeing. I'm not saying that I'm expecting a fantastic level of writing from a Pokemon game(that would be silly), but I don't think anybody is asking for that, they're asking for consistency in worldbuilding and characters. Unfortunately, ZA fails to deliver this, disappointing longtime fans of XY's story and not impressing folks who just entered the franchise with ZA. I'd be more than happy to discuss the story more with you, but are you interested in a discussion, or do you just want to be abrasive?
