perhaps a hot take but i consider it more like lukewarm at best
listen y'all can be upset that you won't be able to transfer all your pokemon over but like. so many people are at an 11 out of this. when they need to be like a 5. maybe a 7 if you push it.
yeah it's a money-hungry move but hello? have... you ever seen pokemon? played one? do you know this franchise? are you going to tell me next you're shocked that GI Joe has merchandise my dude? please calm down

i realize it's not an ideal thing but it's also not the literal end of the fucking world. you can have cherished memories of a franchise and *also* know that it has been, since its inception, a moneymaking enterprise where corners are cut in the name of the almighty dollar.
just, like, simmer the fuck down. take that rolling boil to a nice low-medium ok? ok.
it's fuckin pokemon you guys. jesus.

@InspectorCaracal yeah i think a lot of it is people being mad at remembering pokemon is a game franchise meant for kids to enjoy because they are selling it to kids
a lot of it is the exact same anger i saw against the new star wars movies lmao. people who think new people enjoying a thing in a different way diminishes how they enjoyed the thing. extremely silly and tiring lol

@wigglytuffitout i'm having flashbacks to entitled adult comic book nerds bitching about some superhero thing being targeted at, god forbid, Not Them.
