As per usual they have to lie to make Pokemon seem good. If we narrow it down then the Digimon evolution tree would have offshoots of the cat that is an angel cat line which ends in sexy woman, the exact same tree as Pokemon and also the dinosaur into heavy machinery pipeline.

More like Wargaymon. I've seen bootleg Power Rangers transform into better looking mecha dinosaurs. It's got claws on its feet, yet not on its hands, so that's why it's wearing huge metal class? Talk about losing the genetics lottery

Yugioh and MtG aren't for 6 year olds, that's just the age rating and in Yugioh's case the anime and mangas(yes plural) are aimed at 8-12 year olds while the card game is marketed towards adults.

That and every TCG with low age ratings have seperate competitive circuits for children younger than 13.

Unironically. Correct.

Card games where never originally designed with children in mind at any point in their long long history. They're games for everyone but mostly adults.

>>713281137 (OP)
>This is why Digimon never took off.
It really isn't.
The by far biggest reason is unironically that Digimon, broadly, no matter all the exceptions, are too smart.

The key to Pokemon's success is in large part people's love for animals and pets. And an animal being intelligent can be cute, fun, cool, or overall awesome. But when your pet is as intelligent as a human person it starts to become creepy to treat them as pets and they lose out a lot of their "animal qualities" in the process. And this makes them less appealing to most people.
Granted that it makes them more appealing to some and potentially a lot more appealing to others. But most people prefer the pet-pokemon over the person-digimon.


And clearly they recognize this on the creative side too considering how even pokemon that are theoretically super smart, they still act like dumb animals in practise anyway.

>>713286358
>Implying that picrel is somehow better than Digimon.

The only thing pokemon did to become so widespread is appeal to parents, while Digimon appealed to children. And since children don't have money of their own Digimon fell short.

>>713287840
Only Digimon World 1 is good.

Digimon always had cooler designs, especially after gen 2 pokemon

Guys will see this and just think "hell yeah"

I always felt like most of the "canon" Digivolution lines made sense, and that anything that turns mechanical also made sense since Digimon are just inherently tied to devices and and machines, what with being digital. Even something like Patamon at least has wings before it becomes Angemon and part of the story with it is that it's an unassuming, underwhelming creature that has a hidden potential tied to it. It's okay if the evolution isn't just turtle to bigger turtle to bigger turtle with cannons.

>>713288146
Hell yeah

>>713288146
hell yeah

>>713281712
Fans had to beg for localization after Savers because games weren't being released in the west (we never got Redigitize, Decode, Lost Evolutions or the Digimon Adventure game).
Time Stranger is a gift.

>>713288237
The reality is that all the evolutions do make sense, the people criticizing the inconsistency simply don't care to learn about it and cannot separate game logic from the lore of the franchise.

>>713287824

The reason she calls it GaruruGreymon is actually an incredibly obscure reference to Omegamon's first appearance in the WonderSwan game Digimon Adventure: Anode Tamer (and its second version Cathode Tamer released 5 weeks later) as an event-distribution Digimon ala Mew in Pokémon. This game came out in December 1999, about 3 months before Our War Game was in theaters, with the event planned as a promotion for the movie (Diablomon also appeared in said game, and even Apocalymon). Anyway, it was called GaruruGreymon in the game because the name had yet to be finalized.

This movie is better than Our War Game, not to say that OWG is bad in any way. But that first movie is something you can show ANYONE, they don't need any background information. You can watch it in Japanese without knowing subtitles and you will still 100% understand what's happening. The empowering concept of children having an extremely powerful pet monster is something universal, something that anyone who has ever been a child can feel an emotional attachment to. The use of Bolero as a way to emphasize escalation and evolution is inspired, and there's a lot of symbolism and subtext present if you've read any of Hosoda's interviews.

Our War Game, by comparison, is meant to play out like a summer blockbuster and has what Hosoda calls a "miracle ending" that's just thrown in there because it vibes with the feeling of the movie. It was even meant to be a road trip movie early on, while the original movie was supposed to be a story about Taichi's father and his friends having fun and rampaging with Digimon through the city during the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. I love OWG, but it's not something that everyone will get something out of, especially since you need 50+ episodes and a movie of background information to really get what's happening. It's less of a universal concept, but it's still really cool.

>>713288982

There must be some deep seated instinctual evolutionary psychology behind the appeal of this because it's pretty universal throughout human history in a way. We see it in things like Religion and mythology where Gods and deities are animals and worshipped to protect guard people. And native cultures who use animal pelts as masks as protection.

It's also just so fucking cathartic to have a giant trex be the reflection of your own soul and turn into a goddamn cyborg when you get character development.

>>713289662

its an interpretation of maturity, with the digimon themselves being metaphors of change

all children desire to grow up, and through the powers of virtue (in digimon adventure) they learn what is the best in life and enable positive change for themselves and those around them as they pass the various trials of life

I can never think about digimon without cringing because I simped for an older girl that was into it who pretended to be my friend so she could sperg out about digimon to me, massage her feet, do her homework for her and tried to sit and fart on my face and when I puked all over myself and her sperged out at her pushing her off and screeching, I was kicked out of her home, banned from ever staying over and she never talked to me again, and my parents hit me and screeched how dare I hit a girl, she spread rumors i felt her butt and beat her all the time and nobody spoke to me for the rest of elementary until my family moved states so I went to a new school with new people.

I never liked digimon I only pretended to be into it to impress that demon, fuck digimon I've always loved pokemon, hopefully nintendo gives it the palworld treatment and deletes it and shuts the company down.

The Cyber Sleuth model for most bugs make them look like toys for example.

Evolution is cringe, and your pic helps demonstrate why because the top half is basically a growth chart of felines in their current genetic state whereas the bottom attempts to show radical changes in the creature as per evolutionary theory, which as it turns out is qualitatively retarded.

I love how Hosoda describes the climax of the movie, how the buildings and balconies of Hikarigaoka are filled with children watching the fight like the setting is their personal colosseum. He also describes Taichi, having entered grade school by this point, holding skepticism, reservations, and even a bit of fear towards Koromon, recognizing the danger of the unknown, but his gradual acceptance and finally support for it as he doesn't want it to lose and blows Hikari's whistle. Hikari, on the other hand, being as young as she is, fully accepts Koromon from the start, but as it evolves and becomes more destructive to everything around it, she begins to recognize the fear her brother felt, it's almost like this loss of innocence. Hosoda cited The Spirit of the Beehive as a major influence.

>>713291060
Lions precede housecats in the evolutionary model btw, another aspect of evolution mechanics in games that makes no sense beyond aesthetics.

>>713291262
Culumon is canon but he doesn't evolve as part of the plot so he rarely gets games. He actually got his own fucking game where you raise a little Calumon on a Pocket Playstation. He was in the DS games as a secret but I forget how. He boosted experience or something

Pokemon has worse monster collection RPGs, they're only good if you like PVP combat or solely the actual act of collecting monsters to fill out a checklist. Even the games that actually do have decent PVE combat sections lock it exclusively to postgame back to back battle sections like the battle tower. Even CS/HM are better as PVE games and everyone knows how spotty they are, let alone the DS titles which are way better balanced and actually focused on the monsters.

Never understood Pekoemon coomers. On the other hand I'm suprised there isn't as much Digimon porn considering it has literal coomer designs.

The reason Pokemon was more successful than Digimon is because Pokemon only has the fun parts of raising a monster pet but Digimon forces players to spend an extremely large amount of time on the lame and annoying parts of raising a pet.
>cleaning up your pets crap mechanics
>your pet fucking dies of old age mechanics
>training your pet is tedious and time consuming

>>713293075
But Pokemon has practically zero parts of raising a pet? Unless you count the photo mode level minigames like brushing their hair for a minor item. They aren't even the same genres. Digimon is typically either pure Monster Raising or turn based JRPG/monster collecting/Monster Raising, while Pokemon is just turn based JRPG + monster collecting. Completely different focuses.

>>713293619
They're cute, they do what you say, they probably love you, and they follow you around. That already is the main appeal of owning a pet.
As I said, pokemon already has all the parts of owning a pet that people actually like. People don't buy pets so they can enjoy the thrill of picking up turds or buying them pet food.

My point was that when the franchises were new and first picking up steam back in the 90s, the Pokemon games were simple pet raising fun and the digimon games AT THAT TIME were autistic turd collecting simulators. That's why Pokemon is the most wildly successful multimedia franchise in history and Digimon is a mostly forgotten failure. Yes digimon slowly changed to copy pokemon but it was too late

>ywn be angewomons sentient clothes

You stupid fucking retard Digimon is a spinoff of Tamagotchi. One of THE MOST POPULAR PET RAISING SIM TOYS OF ALL TIME in the 1990s. World 1 has tamagotchi gameplay. It was only World 1 back then too they immediately abandoned it.

Why can't we just get a future Pokemon title with the aesthetic design sensibilities of Gen 3-4 Pokemon but the visual complexity of Digimon?

Okay, so instead of evolving backwards,
you just get the refrigerator with a machine gun,
and it doesn't evolve into anything.

It'd be interesting that if your pokemon had evolutions,
if you could evolve forwards and backwards whenever you wanted after you got them once.

That's what I'd want in Digimon World 1,
that if you got the evolution once,
as a reward, if you could turn into that one whenever you wanted.

>>713296056
I liked how in Digimon there was a reason for there being no parents and then later them discovering it was a big part of their character. And it tied into some neat character stuff like Koushiro being adopted and shit. Tamers was really good with parents too

>>713294385
>autistic turd collecting simulators

>>713295583
Any time Pokemon makes a more complex creature design, people say it's overdone or "looks like digimon". I have heard this complaint among casual players since Gen 4, specifically when they added god level mons. People just want Pokemon to be a simpler game.

>>713296267

My only issue with digimon games has always been the more open ended evolution paths including a bunch of weird gimmick versions of existing digimon.
I don't mind the digimon being able to digivolve into different looking things, I find it pretty charming, but when half of it's transformations are agumon with different designs I lose my will to continue with the game.

>>713296137
I believe it. I hate the nip mafia.

It's not usually THIS egregious in every game, but Agumon has a ton of variants.

Unless kids are a completely different breed now, I'd say little boys still want to see cool edgy stuff like that.

I always liked that about digimon.
If you treat your monster cruelly it turns into something ugly and weak. Treat it nice and it turns into something cute.
Make it fight lots and it turns into a killing machine. Don't make it fight and it becomes something fat and silly.

It's a shame that none of the devs handed the property do anything interesting with it and just do barebones jrpgs taking inspiration from the tranime and not the virtual pets

LOTR was an analogy for the banks (Sauron) and it's absolute power over the population with its corrupting power (fiat money).
Golem is a sniffling crackhead (ecelebs) who'll do anything for the ring (fiat currency).

The only thing Tolkien got wrong is that Sauron is both a Master and slave to the ring, not just Master

Digimon didn't succeed because it strayed from what made it appealing whereas Pokemon kept refining itself. After Adventure and World 1, the idea of being lost in the digital world with your monster buddy was basically abandoned. Tamers was a slight exception due to Chiaki Konaka's writing, but 02 and Frontier just felt nothing like the Digimon people started with. The games became generic turn-based JRPGs, which is the complete opposite of what they should've been. And after that who really cares.

The parts of Digimon that are focused on the mystery and weirdness of the digital world are the absolute best, but the franchise doesn't really capitalize on that. To a degree the same thing is true of Pokemon but if you play a Pokemon game or watch the anime you know exactly what you're getting.

Digimon never took off because the games sucked. All they had to do was copy the pokemon format, but even the digimon games that resembled pokemon's format still made digivolving a fucking labyrinth of shit that doesn't make any sense.

On top of that, nothing is straight forward about digimon evolving even in terms of how to make an Omnimon or something. Digimonfags have to accept that their lore and world building fucking blows, and that's compared to pokemon's shitty lore and world building.

Dragon Warrior Monsters still the GOAT.

It's such a weird phenomenon how people who have never played the Digimon Story games always feel compelled to talk about them.

The last people to ever judge monster designs are 4chan Pokemon fans. They see a design with more than two degrees of detail and their brains start overloading. Same if the design is too "edgy" because they've been brainwashed into thinking edgy = bad

Monster Rancher does have games, though. The best raising sims on the market. This would be more of an accomplishment if that genre had more than 20 entries.

>>713304872
I've played all of them. If you're asking why digimon didn't compete with pokemon, it's because the games were bad.

>>713304915
Holy shit, lmao. You retards got laughed off the platform 20 years ago, and you're still trying to push this "your brain can't handle the peak design" shit. Digimon is a meme tier franchise and it always has been.

They did, and it's full of Ultraman Kaiju. It's only the second-best game though 2DX reigns supreme.

>>713281137 (OP)
Haven’t played either since I was a kid in the 90s but Pokemon and Digimon are completely different and have nothing in common other than sharing similar names and have something to do with monsters.
Digimon was basically a fancy tamagotchi competitor.
Pokemon was basically Shin Megami Tensei for children.
Neither was truly original but Digimon was fighting an uphill battle against the market leader that was tamagotchi, whereas Pokemon was the mainstream version of a niche idea backed by a massive corporation.

>>713304445
I now know why spics love this guy so much. He's a super saiyan.

You clearly didn't, or you're retarded. The story games don't resemble Pokemon at all beyond basic turn based mechanics neither series invented. And having to pay attention to,

>rarely number of battles and playtime
Is not labyrinthine evolution requirements at all. The most convoluted it gets is needing to DNA digivolve/fuse to get some Digimon first before going further down a different tree.

The only thing I dont like about Digimon is that my favourites are never the higher tiers so I can never use them for the entire game like I can my Pokemon.

>>713304170
All they had to do was retcon everything after 2 and make a proper follow-up. Instead they only kind of half-did and made it a fucking ad.

>>713305586
Oh, you're illiterate. I said the games failed BECAUSE they don't resemble pokemon games. The ones that DO resemble pokemon games come with convoluted bullshit to digivolve. That's why they're BAD games.

That's a lot of words to say Digimon is the Holds Up Spork of evolution mechanics.

Of course this shit didn't garner wider appeal. It's really lazy if you dig into it.

It didn't take off because they decided instead of trying to compete with the Nintendo monster catching game on the Nintendo game system, they'd put it on the Bandai game system that never left Japan and sold mediocre there as well.

>>713306776
Even if they pushed for competing on the gameboy they still would've lost, every kid in the 90's and early 00's wanted a gameboy packaged with pokemon or legend of zelda and they got custom colour schemes and decals to show off to the other kids because they were nintendo brands. Pokemon got to be in all the big marketing pushes from Nintendo while Bandai shifted towards stuff that sold models like Gundam.

He is literally wearing golden armor

I remember trying to make a competitive team in CS but having to digivolve and de-digivolve the same mon 100 times in order to get the max amount of distributable stats was the most retarded shit ever.

>>713306996
Based as hell. Virus Metalgreymon always had way more personality—dude looked like he crawled out of the scrap heap and said "nah, I ain’t done yet." The blue chestplate, the exposed wiring, the dead eye... he looked like a Digimon that earned every inch of his power the hard way. Meanwhile the orange one looks like it came out of a Saturday morning toy commercial focus group.

Let's run through what you said to help you along here, anon.
>All they had to do was copy the pokemon format
>I said the games failed BECAUSE they don't resemble pokemon games.
Implying this is what they lacked and not doing this is the reason for failing, because they failed according to you.

>but even the digimon games that resembled pokemon's format
>The ones that DO resemble pokemon games
Implying that they actually did what you said was necessary for success and the only reason it failed was because of the games being bad, not because they didn't try to copy Pokemon (which they didn't).

>still made digivolving a fucking labyrinth of shit that doesn't make any sense.
>convoluted bullshit to digivolve. That's why they're BAD games.
This statement is the reason you give for the games being bad, so therefore if it isn't accurate (which it isn't) your argument falls apart. Also it doesn't even make sense in the first place because the ultimate reason would still be the games being bad and not them not being Pokemon anyway.
Hope that helps.

>>713307503
"Copy" and "resemble" are different words with different meanings. Good job, you illiterate retard.

>>713307043
It doesn't take that long, it's like 10-15 ABI per de-digivolution or something and you can max 8 Digimon out in 2-3 random battles. That's like 20-30 times at worst.
