I mean, recognizing that I say this with some jest, Pokémon isn’t all that different from dog fighting. Capturing innocent animals and forcing them to fight each other for your entertainment.
Except that it’s virtual. Kids weren’t being inspired to fight their pets the same why that kids who played Quake weren’t inspired to fight in death matches.
fully agree, if that was their main reason i would understand, its just the blatant disregard for the actual meaning of the show. As someone who was a pretty big fan up to black/white, their reasoning’s for not being able to watch it seems absurd. Like sure you catch Pokemon and force them to fight, 100% valid. It’s just judging the entire thing based off the personality style of both TR and Misty seemed ridiculous IMO. Like sure Misty and Jessie weren’t amazing on the personality side for the first season or two, but like they did get better, and it was clear that the rudeness wasn’t meant to be what the focal point was.
I honestly couldn’t play PalWorld because you couldn’t even pretend you’re all just buddies paling around, you’re hitting the poor things with sticks and making steaks out of them when theyre not useful on your plantation anymore Q_Q

Yup, WWE is much more harmful than any videogame, because kids actually mimic WWE.

I was never a huge fan; more of a passing interest, but I also dropped off after black/white.
N Was Right

NGL; it put a sour taste in my mouth when I got to the butcher knife part, I refused to use it lol
Why do you think depresso is so… depressed.
Because his “owner” won’t let him play NIN all day, obviously.
