“the ecology of pokémon is varied” — Gary Oak
i've managed to convince my girlfriend to hang out while i watch pokémon
we talked about how the absol episode was like nuclear semiotics
i think it goes really understated how even the very simple things in Pokémon like “Peck is super-effective against Bug-types” still does more exploration into the natural world and ecosystems and interactions between different kinds of life than like 99% of videogames, and maybe even fictional media
