Magic, Worldbuilding, and Pokémon's Biggest Failure
Hey, thanks for joining me today!
I've got something a little different for you here. This isn't a Pokémon retrospective video essay, and this isn't a hit piece on the new Pokémon Scarlet & Violet games.
No, instead, we're taking a look at the fundamentals of Pokémon. Not the games: the world. Pokémon is built on a world that's as magical as it is broken.
So today, let's take a journey through all of history and fiction to learn more about the magic, worldbuilding, and biggest failure of Pokémon.
