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