It's super easy to create a post game or a story tie for these characters. I'm not implying everyone needs to be put at a mountain or desolate area like red was. I'm just upset they didn't even try, the lack of their creativity is astonishing. Like a former employee of theirs said on a reputable review site, you can only fall upwards if you're working there as there's no drive among anyone in the team to do better

So what you're saying is they should hire me and I'll be able to implement what I want?

Anon, they don't like gaijans. Even with all the stuff Turner did for designing monsters he had to leave and ended up getting a better offer at TPCi's branch with a better salary and work life balance. For fucks sake, GF was responsible for snatching the Pokemon license away from Hal, Genius Sonority, Spikechun, and anyone worth a shit that is able to make a better Pokemon game. The leaks even showed they told Nintendo to fuck off when Nintendo suggested teaming up with square enix to make the Pokemon games. This company is honestly a lost cause

Why did these guys even bother making games in the first place if they hate it so much? I thought these guys were genuine video game artists, hence why the used to magazines about them

True. But they really had no excuse cutting Hilbert/Hilda from the PWT in B2W2. Battling them made as much sense as battling Red in gen 2.

The odds of you getting a big corporation job in Japan as a gaijin are about the same as finding a quality, loving, attractive wife on 4chan.
Technically not 0, but low enough that you'd be a fool for trying, and the tale of when you thought you got it, only to have the rug pulled would become a greentext.

Though, as an aside. A thin, glimmer of hope. Something I've heard developing recently, I am not Japanese or employed in Japan so take it with a fat bucket of salt, but I have heard this a few times.
I have heard that the job position of the company's gaijin is gaining traction. There's one, maybe two of you, and your job is in line with the court jester. Japanese people are too obedient for their own good, so chronic, systemic problems can go unaddressed for years, because nobody will ever bring it up to their boss. The printer has been broken for seven years, and the maintenance guy they call has just not been doing his job, and any true employee would sooner commit ritual suicide than tell their boss shit's fucked, so everyone has been using their lunch to go print this department's documents at a 7-11, that sort of thing. So, hire a gaijin to do pretend work (they're still a gaijin, and thus cannot do anything of value, surely you've heard of the career pencil sharpeners and guys that make handwritten copies of documents) who will stir the pot and complain up the pecking order, thereby solving this sort of systemic problem. Coworkers complaining to the gaijin is socially fine, he's literally a clown doing fake work, who's so damn socially inept and gregarious that you can't help spilling your guts to him, and the gaijin can complain to the boss, 'cuz he's a gaijin and complaining is what gaijins do, thus an effective line of communication has been achieved.

Funnily enough, the leaks also show that Masuda was a major painpoint that everyone wanted fucking gone. And now he failed upwards into a TPC promotion because everyone at GF hated his fucking guts.

The fucking MISUTA MERRIKKU memes may have been an accurate representation of him. Also this image is so soulful, looking back at it. Nowadays it would be AI slopped and lack the little details that make it shine.

what would the later gens post game previous protag teams look like? any ideas
>>
>>59719456
Really it should just always be Red with various levels of bizarre teams cause he doesn't understand which pokemon are the strongest in each region and is too autistic to ask
>>

starter evos
pseudolegendary
useful early route mon

do the other gen protags even have non starter signatures? can't really think of any

Just do what they did with Red and borrow signatures from the manga. I guess the issue would be a lot of the "signature" mon they have are kinda shitmon. Like I'd probably pick Politoad over Aipom for Gold, even though I feel like Aipom is more of his signature. Then again, Pikachu is a shitmon as well, so maybe it'd help some shitmon get signature items like Lightball to make them feel more intimidating to the player to fight against. That, and making them like level 100 while the rest of their team is in the 80's or osmething lol.
>>
>>59719494
>implying people would know what the manga is doing enough that Gold having an Aipom of all things would make sense
Pikachu's only in Red's team cause Yellow and the anime

no?

johtoddlers like you didn't know who that was since they didn't play rby
>>
>>59719499
Anon, the manga featuring Red (not Ash) came out first and featured Pikachu as his signature. There were also manga runs before then that featured Red proxies and Pikachu. Pikachu was definitely picked because it's what they eventually settled on as the series mascot, but the anime was definitely not the reason why Pikachu was picked for Red. Pikachu and red were a thing long before Ash was conceived as a Red proxy.

Besides, it doesn't really matter much if people don't follow the manga. The signature mon for each protag would essentially be solidified in their heads when they see said protag lead the battle with random shitmon from their gen. It's fitting anyway.

Wasn't Clefairy Red's main pokemon in the original manga?
The connection the west would have to Pikachu would be from the anime and as a kid you didn't know what a "Red" was in RBY that fucker was Ash

Clefairy AND Pikachu. That was the very early days when they were still kinda testing the waters on what Pokemon resonated better with kids. They thought Clefairy would be a hit, but Pikachu won in the end. Red had both in the OG manga as his signature.

The west is completely irrelevant to the discussion of the first 2 gens. They only ever became a consideration starting from Gen 3.
>>
>>59719573
>>59719582
Also if we're changing history to "all games past gen 2 continue the pattern of previous protag returning," then it'd be nice to also have the anime just stop using Ash for every region and bring in the regional protag instead as someone other than his platonic girl-toy sidekick.
>>
>>59719506
The fuck are you talking about you retarded zoom-zoom? I played Blue, Red, and Yellow, blue and yellow on release and red after my friend's jackass older brother stole my blue version (it had a certified event mew on it too the bastard), then I played Gold and Crystal (my sister had Silver). Johto mogs kanto and it's not even a contest, but Gens 1 and 2 are both steaming dogshit that you shouldn't play because FRLG and HGSS exist and mog them in every single way unless you're a subhuman faggot blinded by nostalgia.
>>
>>59719603
But does FRLG have ridiculous fun glitches cause the game is held together with hopes and dreams? I think not
