This is why, in retrospective, I've really fallen out of love with Pokémon. I could have spent that time learning about real-world animals and plants, since it's so arguable, whether Pokémon are even cooler to begin with.

I still love Pokémon, I just try not to let my nostalgia for the old games get in the way of enjoying the new ones. I try to judge everything on its own merit.

But yeah I agree, really animals are way more complex and interesting than anything you'd find in a game.
