I hope Pokemon loses more fans due to the recent BS.

Spoiler!

After nearly 20 years of the Pokemon Anime and the hopes of Ash Ketchum winning a Pokemon League this time around, the Production crew once again pulls the exact same stunt and he loses to Alain's Mega Charizard X in the Finals. It's gonna be at the point where fans are going to tired of the same thing over and over again. specifically Japanese fans who may have felt cheated as well and the 'clickbait' episode title used to spread unnecessary hype, only to crush those hopes.

Pokemon Moon will be the last Pokemon game I'll be buying.

Soooo you're not going to play a game series... because of the anime? Can't you just not watch the anime?

Unless they come up with a way to make up for how it ended, yes.

Yes but... the people who make the games aren't the same people who make the anime... it just seems kinda petty to quit an entire game series because a loose anime adaptation had an unsatisfactory ending.

The anime and its lead are trash and OP I'm with Kondibob for your reason of quitting the franchise because of the lousy anime

[Zysets]

I think the anime recycles the same thing over and over because they're expecting new generations of kids to pick up where others leave as they grow older. The Pokemon anime is meant for kids, it's going to be tailored for each incoming generation of fans.

But as a whole, yes the anime is pretty bad, but I'm still a huge fan of the game series.

You're stopping playing the games because of the anime. But you're still going to buy the next game.

Holy shit this is gold.

I guess if there is one reason you don't like the game, then you don't like it... I doubt anything we say will make them like it again

I'm just going to point out that when has he ever won? The anime and the games are supposed to be taken as two separate continuities, which is also why anyone in it has barely aged.

I don't really get this rant since you're buying the next entry in the ongoing franchise, thus supporting the anime because it's been the same idea that's been reworked to hell and back.

He won once, in a league that wasn't even IN the games. Not buying a game based on the faults of an anime adaption is like not reading a book because of a movie adaption. While I can understand it would put you off some, you've clearly played the games long enough to know that Ash has NO bearing on the games whatsoever. This whole thing seems moot and unhinged...
