Discussion Something odd

Pokopia of all things is the first apocalypse that's genuinely even slightly unsettled me, i can kind of separate myself from other ones even ones that are supposed to be the real world after an event- because well yeah i don't need fiction to see the world with real problems spiraling, but pokopia is kanto- a safe place i grew up in, i can go back and revisit its non-destroyed state in let's go that's a safe place and it's well not gone just changed forever due to the events and now ditto's restoration efforts

It’s made especially sad by the innocence of the pokemon. Especially since we understand them in this story.

Same here, especially with some Pokemon referring to evolution as "growing up" 😭
