    I’m so glad pal world exists. It completely shows how lazy Pokémon has become.

      It’s so stupid too. Imagine if there was this fight when Doom came out suing Duke Nukem 3D and Quake. The industry thrives on iteration.

          Man, how did I not know that? I was mostly thinking of the Duke Nukem line: “I ain’t afraid of no Quake” when coming up with games that clearly use the same mechanics but didn’t go around suing each other. And Duke Nukem 3D was obviously based on the FPS games that came before.

      true, they stopped trying after gen 5. they got lazier and lazier(as in the types of unique pokemon is just a rehashed version of a previous generations), as you can tell the post-game content has getting smaller and smaller. plus Masuda Spearheads the game consoles, and he already mention he wasnt going to try and develop the game further.
