I like Pokemon because wooper is cute and I like seeing the funny animals. Yes the world has a massive cognitive dissonance where the story is about becoming friends with Pokemon and the gameplay is about kidnapping and using them to fight. I don't care. Every 10 year old has realised that about Pokemon.

I'm glad Pokemons monopoly is being challenged because they might have to actually try more than they did with SV but I want people to shut up about Palworld. It's just ARK with Pokemon instead of dinosaurs. I should play ARK now I think about it
