Has the 30th Anniversary of Pokémon been a complete shitshow?The cards are just a get rich quick scheme at this point. Champions is the most unbalanced and broken competitive format ever. And no one watches Horizons. All 3 pillars of the franchise - cards, games, and anime have been a disaster this year.

>>59287531>He wont come back.Yeah... I miss Amethio too
>>59287522They delayed Gen 10 to make some fuck ass battle sim no one asked for, and fake Animal CrossingNow we have to wait until basically 2028 for a new Pokemon game that actually mattersRetards
>>59287531>always have been Only since Covid. And it's gotten even worse with most packs being resold for $10+, soon to be $15+. >it's comp I'm not saying you should be able to win tournaments with Jigglypuff. But almost every Champions team is just Sneasler/Garchomp/Kingambit + 1 Mega (usually either Charizard, Dragonite, or Floette).>he won't come backAnd that's why Horizons is bad. No one cares about generic shy girl, Goh 2.0, and autistic furry.
>tranime>pillarLmao even the tranime hasn't been relevant in years when the movies were cancelled it died
>>59287658>No one cares about generic shy girl,I do. AND Penny.
>>59287665The Kimetsu no Yaiba movie brutally humiliated the Coco movie; even the Japanese made fun of it
Romhacks are doing more for the 30th anniversary than Pokemon is
>>59287694> Global pandemic > The world is in a lockdown.> Pokémon executive: We are going to release a movie about an ugly monkey and his father-son relationship with a Tarzan ripoff which would be so touching that people would ignore the pandemic to watch the movie.Anybody could see that this movie will flop. The biggest issue with Pokémon movie that they were fillers that people has to pay to watch and Coco was the biggest filler with nothing interesting to watch. They need a movie that is relevant and has an impact on the show.
>>59287522Almlst everyone I know watches Horizons, idk where you people get the idea that no one watches itThe 30th anniversary was ok, I liked the free shit they gave away in Masters and TCGPI mean it's just an anniversary, who gives a single fuck, there is nothing to actually celebrate, it's literally just a marketing gimmick. I don't know what the fuck you expected to be frank, it's a glorified ad campaign
>>59288417The only thing I really expected was for them to release Winds and Waves this year, especially since the leaks said it was slated for 2026. Seeing it get delayed again really surprised me, since PLZA's delay was evidently also just a delay for Winds and Waves.
>>59288421But it's a good thing that they delayed itYou've seen the state SV was in, why would you want them to repeat the same blunder for some made up anniversary
>>59288424I guess yeah, but the bugs weren't really my problem with SV. It's embarrassing that it released in such a buggy state but I still think i's a snooze cruise of an rpg with an empty open world that isn't fun to explore, refuses to commit to actually letting you do stuff out of order even though it pretends it does, and the usual mountain of baffling choices GF makes. I don't expect Winds and Waves to be any better with an even bigger, emptier open world that's mostly Ocean.
>>59288429I mean the bugs were one if its least problems, there weren't even many of those no matter how much people shitposted about themI'm talking more about the abysmally bad graphics and performance, SV should've never been allowed to ship like that and more time in the oven could've easily fixed those issuesThe stuff you mentioned is mostly subjective so no time in the world would fix those things cause they probably wouldn't want to change those. Except maybe making the world less empty I guessStill, they literally fucked over XY on purpose because they wanted SM for the anniversary or whatever. And that as a fucking idiotic decision, why would you want them to repeat that
>>59288442Didn't say I wanted them to, just that I'm surprised they didn't.
>>59287522I want to punch her face
Kanto is the only thing matters
>>59288449I see, yeah that's fairI'm glad that they didn't, as I said anniversaries are basically made up, the passage of time is not a special occasion
>>59287522>hating on championsDid you work for IGN perhaps?
>>59288417Ashtards have been spamming their flop meme ever since the show started out of a hope that if they post it enough, it will warp reality and make their husbando return.
Didn't read any of the posts aboveSex with liko
>>59287522>No...noooooo! Elite Four, one of the strongest trainers in Paldea, just dismembered my not fully evolved starter!!! It is unfair!!!!!!! REEEEEEEE!!!!!!!What did she mean my this???
>>59287658>Only since CovidNo, since the inception. TCGs are scams as of themselves.>No one cares about generic shy girl, Goh 2.0, and autistic furry.If popularity means quality then the TCG is better than ever.
>>59288417>Almlst everyone I know watches Horizons,How many people do you actually know?
>>59287658>usually either Charizard, Dragonite, or FloetteFroslass, Aerodactyl, Tyranitar, Delphox, and Gengar all see more usage than Dragonite as megas.
>>59289481Counting both IRL friends and online friends about 30 people, I know that about 20 of them watch it cause I watch it together with a part of them and discuss it with the rest
>>59288424And when wind/waves still comes out as a game you’d expect to be released 10 years ago, maybe people will finally stop using this excuse.
It's called a "humiliation ritual".
>>59287522This is why I just got what mattered to me and didn't pay attention to anything else.
I unironically started reading fanfics and it’s incredible to me how a bunch of autistic retards make more satisfying stories than the trashnime writers ever did.
>>59290670It’s not writers fault pokemon is so satinized even the detective pikachu director said working with tpc was a pain in the ass, no wonder a sequel doesnt exist
>>59290694im surprised detective pikachu was frowned upon internally. They really seemed to actually care about it.
>>59287522liko looks like this and cries like this when i hold her down and rape her
>>59287522Floppedniversary. Flopnime.
>>59290778Relax, Faba
>>59287694Imagine pitting movies about cool sword battles against demons of Michael Jackson again a movie with an ugly monkey mythical and a homoerotic story about 2 dudes missing their fathers.
>>59287522People will cope but they really got scared of palworld
>>59287531>He wont come back.I hope that whoever's not coming back is at least paying rent in your head
