Scarlet/Violet is a signal that the franchise is finally near end of life. There is a reason it's the lowest rated. DLC. Empty. Too rapid a departure from formula. Unusable moves and mons from previous generations. Continues the tradition of degrading art quality.

Never liked the furrybait, bipedal animal Pokemon they've been doing. More and more new Pokemon are sexualized. 3ds-era Pokemon is the furthest I'll go now. Black/B2 and Omega Ruby/AS were the last good ones

Wtf happened? why keep making new creatures when there were hundreds of fine non-kiked ones?
