    1. Horrible it pushes a greedy company further and it promotes animal abuse. Pokemone was also a supporter of Israel.

    1. Are you really that retarded to bring Palworld up? No one said that Pokemon Z-A will sell less than Palworld because they exist longer and are more famous. Where are Nexomon and all those other games, that copied Pokemon. Don’t they count any more?

      1. I mean palworld fans have been talking a big game saying it’s gonna do better than Pokemon. Sure doesn’t look like it

  1. We all know that sales does not equal quality, COD is an easy indicator of that.

    Pokémon is not even a fun franchise, I mean the battle system is complete ass, most turn based games are Garbo except for maybe the Worms franchise, and maybe pool and few others.

    Custom Robo Arena was a much better game than all Pokémon games in terms of gameplay.

    1. This has to be bait because most gamers love turn based battles and the majority of Final Fantasy fans are hoping the series will return to its former glory in the next entry with TBB. If you can’t strategize and think several moves ahead just say these games are beyond your intellectual limitations, nobody will make fun of you admitting a shortcoming. This hot take though, we’ll all make fun of you for.
