>Yeah, it sounds crazy, but if Pokemon continues to pump out the same slop people WILL get tired of it.
You people have been saying this same shit every day for 12 years. It's time to accept that Pokemon is too big to fail because of the merch. The only way this series could ever be forced to improve is to starve the beast, and even if every single customer of the video games suddenly grew standards and a backbone overnight, that would still be impossible because women and children wouldn't stop buying Pikachu plushies in droves, which is what brings in the real money for this franchise.
For anyone who actually cares about video games, the only value Pokemon will ever have anymore is the entertainment value of making fun of it. It's better to accept that and move on instead of continuing to delude yourself with false hope of it ever failing.
