Who doesn't love the wholesome stuff? The battling and gym stuff is fine, and the collection stuff is pure dopamine junkie which is whatever. But why not do more cute shit like this? How about a game where you just take care of a few that you love?

Exactly. Especially in the phone gatcha era. Having a tamogachi like game where you just love your pokemon and get rewarded with cute pics would sell gangbusters

The franchise has been getting sanitized like crazy for years and years now. What more le heckin' wholesomerino you want than what already is? Any edges or pointy bits have all been sanded down to the limit.

They have only been doing that more as time goes on. I don’t know what you’re talking about
