Pokemon: The Franchise GameFreak has Never Deserved.

GameFreak's Pokemon games are at best, bland and infuriatingly full of missed potential. and at worst, Offensive to the idea of storytelling. I have a lot of opinions and I know a thing or two about game design, so I talked about it for way too long. Cute creature designs aren't worth your taste buds. Premiere has been an aboslute NIGHTMARE while working on this project. From breaking on startup with no justification for a span of two weeks to failing to Render for a whole other one, it massively exacerbated the pain of making this video.
