Why did Tajiri base pokemon off dog fights?
I thought it was based on beetle fights
>>55795513No, Tajiri in interviews has said he was aware of the sport but never took part of it. Meanwhile in his own biography he admits he sees Pokemon battles as two dog owners letting their dogs scrap because he personally sees Pokemon as dogs.

>>55795527He just didn't care about them. One moment he says they're like dogs getting mad at each other, the next he says they're like the beetles he found under rocks. This is because it doesn't matter what they are. His game was about recreating the feeling of running around in semi-rural Japan as a child. The Pokemon never really mattered to him and were merely a plot device. That's why when people try to define what Pokemon are or what they should be, they should take what Tajiri says with a grain of salt.

>>55795508That was the initial inspiration, and maybe it was somewhat like that for the first two gens, but by Gen 3, Pokemon battles became so over-the-top and destructive (energy beams and explosions everywhere) that they can't really be compared to anything in the real world anymore
>>55795508Where'd this manga come from? Is it official?
>>55795577>"Here, I'll trade you my son for your daughter and your dog."
>>55795760Yes. It’s called “Satoshi Tajiri: The Man Who Created Pokémon”.
