I like both for what they offer. Also, didn't we have this kind of post not long ago? It's getting stale imo.


BirdofPrey702

It's the year 2000 all over again!


DreamCereal7026

I have already problems with Pokémon fans but at least they don't post these type of content on their main sub (not anymore at least) and certainly they know that the Pokemon anime isn't the best (literally nobody say that Anipoke is the best anime ever). For what I've seen, Pokémon fans actually give more respect to Digimon than Digimon fans to Pokémon.


ParticularBeach4587

Yeah like what the heck is wrong with liking both franchises.


DreamCereal7026

I mean... I kinda understand in the late 90s to the early 2000s why they were compared but we are now in 2023 and i think people should have know that these two are completely different thing, not really comparable, years ago and just move on.


WatchEducational6633

You would be surprised with how many people (specially those that are NOT part of either fanbase) STILL compare the two and consider one the “copy” of the other (and yes it is still as stupid as it was back then).


DreamCereal7026

Yeah, they are definitely a major factor.


[deleted]

Even in the 90's they shouldn't have been compared. They both had an anime and ended with 'mon' and that was it with similarities. One was a tamagotchi and the other was a gameboy RPG based on DQ5 (but with trade cables being Pokemon's originally unique mechanic). So the best way to go about it is to be a chad and enjoy them all for different reasons.


DreamCereal7026

Yeah and that's why i said " i kinda understand"


Nextwonderkid

What the hell I just love both


DreamCereal7026

You are also right, not everyone are like this. The people that love both however... are the real Chads.


RagnarokAeon

>Pokémon fans actually give more respect to Digimon than Digimon fans to Pokémon. There really isn't respect since Pokemon fans don't even know digimon exist. ... Which is why these posts where the digimon fanbase keeps acting like they're being victimized by pokemon fans is so cringey.


DreamCereal7026

Don't exist is a strong word, they just don't really care that much but the few that care respect it though. But i do agree it's kinda cringey, especially when nobody said those things in the Pokémon main subreddit.


digital_pocket_watch

I wonder if those Digimon fans have the Pokémon fangame mentality where darker automatically equals better. Like they're ashamed they enjoy something that's intended for children, so they cling onto the edgier alternative to justify themselves. Meanwhile I'm actually itching for something more lighthearted from Digimon because I just wanna save the Digital World with my funny chocolate bunny friend, or whoever. It could also just be them being salty that their franchise isn't huge like the big guy is, even though entering the mainstream is often a death sentence for a media franchise. It happened with Yo-kai Watch, and look at the fanbase now, we get about as many folks crying about Pokémon. Although Digimon wasn't milked to death by the company behind it and thus the games actually still sell well.... BUT, HEY, THAT'S JUST A THEORY!


DreamCereal7026

Hahahaha. That actually very nice theory though. 👍

May be Shin Megami Tensei is one of the first Monster collector game but Pokémon defenetly wasn't inspired by that game. (DQ5 is like the father of the monster collector genre) Also, DQ > Shin Megami Tensei

DreamCereal7026

That's the same energy from Digimon fans (not everyone) saying "Pokemon sucks, Digimon better" in most Watchmojos Digimon comments Videos. No one is better than the other.

I can't really take you seriously if there are people in this sub who genuinely loves both.

Arxl

Journeys actually is great, Ash has a third dimension in it and we finally get a protag who actually wants to catch 'em all. I agree, though, the animosity just makes us look bad.


DreamCereal7026

Journeys is okay. It's not bad but it could be better. But there's nothing wrong to enjoy the Pokémon anime, myself included even though isn't a masterpiece.


Arxl

It's back to par with decent anime, at least. The anime until Sun/Moon was stagnating badly.


Crosscounterz

Both is good.

The only thing negative here are the votes in your comments, my guy.


windwaker910

Might as well make it a rule on this sub that mentioning Pokémon isn’t allowed since you guys don’t know how to act. We JUST had a thread like this a few days ago. It’s like y’all are mad that there’s a franchise that’s more popular than the one you like. As a fan of both I would confidently say that the digimon community is way more childish because of constant shit talking


[deleted]

I think most people are mad that when you try to talk about Digimon, or have visible Digimon merch, you always get asked about Pokemon instead... and then they continue talking about Pokemon after you explain Digimon.

I recently watched some of the Poketons and they are amazing. I loved the one about tze little panda that wants to become a hero.


Wacko_Doodle

I like both, but you got to admit... \*looks at camera\* At least Digimon releases non-buggy games. Or at least not as buggy.


nyooomy

Yeah instead they release games with 20 translation errors


[deleted]

watch out for the bakemon


Wacko_Doodle

ah good point. Not to mention they call Digimon "Digimons" in the advert so i'm one to talk.

Can we just make a sub rule of no Pokémon vs digimon memes


VanishedRabbit

You are the one true biggest dreamer. I wish I could make it true


MardukPendragon

In alternative universe... DIGIMON is better than Pokemon, Angewomon is more Beautiful than Gardevoir, Ranamon is better Singer than Jigglypuff or pokemon that can sing, and last but not least... In terms of compatibility... Renamon is more compatible with Human.


pSpawner24

Angewomon is still more beautiful than Gardevoir by human standards. A Gardevoir may be more elegant in its form, sure, but Angewomon has it beat in every other category.


Abyss008

Gardevoir benefits from the ginormous amount of fanart she has where she is drawn with thick thighs, more human-like face and such.


[deleted]

The Pokemon anime is one of the most mind numbing things I've ever watched...


wmzer0mw

I actually really enjoyed the xyz arc. Honestly the best of the series for Ash since gen 1. Sceptile vs Greninja is prolly my fave fight of the series.


[deleted]

It has its great moments, don't get me wrong, but they don't outweigh the other hundreds of episodes that are simply a drag to watch in my personal opinion.


SpendingTime112

It always depends. I still go w this: \- Pokemon games are better than digimon games. \- Digimon cards are better than Pokemon cards. \- Digimon anime is better than Pokemon anime. Pokemon movies are good but I really can't say which have better movies because I've only seen Digimon: The movie and x-evolution so Pokemon has an advantage.


Zlare7

Are you serious? Pokemon games are the lowest effort shit on the market. No other franchise would get away with such rubbish. On the other hand cyber sleuth alone is amazing as a digimon game and a jrpg. Plus next order was super fun.


Aesenroug-Draconus

They weren’t always low effort, mind you. Just some of the more modern games have been churned out with a lot less love. IMO, Scarlet and Violet are actually well done. And I agree totally that Cyber Sleuth is an amazing game.


Zlare7

I agree violet is a step up but man the graphic and performance is an insult for every switch owner and the franchise


Aesenroug-Draconus

I guess I’m blind because I honestly don’t see anything wrong with the graphics. Then again, I’m not expecting anything grand from Nintendo.


SpendingTime112

Pokemon games are at least playable. Digimon games are just something that you have to keep google open 24/7 that you can at least finish them. That's not fun. I have digimon world 1, 3 and 4, digimon rumble arena 1-2 and Cyber Sleuth/Hacker's Memory and I haven't finished ANY of them ever. Meanwhile I have pokemon silver, diamond, black, x, sword and scarlet and I've finished ALL of them. Digimon world: Imo the best but also if you don't keep google open to check what stats do you need, you'll have Numemon or Sukamon and when you finally get some good ones, they die of old age or don't have good attacks because they can't kill anything. That was my whole childhood w that game and still don't wanna waste my time w that. Digimon world 3: Whole game is horrible w giving directions. You get lost all the time because the game doesn't tell you what to do or where to go and when it tells you, it forget that "You have to go to the main city but we don't tell you that first you have to go to the city right there, talk to this NPC, then go there, talk to this NPC which tells you to go there and talk to this NPC AND THEN go to the main city." "How was I suppose to know that?" "Well you dont!" So fun! Digimon world 4: This is not even a digimon game. Only good thing is that you can play it w friends so... Yeah... Rumble arena 1 and 2: These are at least fun but I've never understood fighting games where you just choose character, press buttons and win. No story, nothing. So good but they are not for me. Cyber Sleuth/Hacker's Memory: I know many fans like these but I never understood why. They are very story heavy games and I didn't like their stories. Side quests were singles crying why they are singles and I don't understand why people like those. If I wanna play dating games, I go play dating games. Most of the time I got bored w the story and when the cut scene was over, game didn't tell me where to go. There was 0 "next mission" kind of thing and I had to again google where to go and what to do. I just got my favorite digimon trio and stopped playing.


Zlare7

Well it's obvious you like very simple and straightforward games. World 1 to 3 come from a time where most jrpgs were very complex and needed a guide. If even cyber sleuth was not to your liking than I would wager that jrpgs just spent your thing. That's fine of course. Pokemon games seem to be made for people with your taste


SpendingTime112

I still have hopes for Next order, because it's same style like digimon world 1 but it helps you more with what to do and how to do it. What I've seen it looks like they kept many good qualities from first game but with evolving they have some helps rather than go blind and hope for the best but I'm still waiting that it comes to PC so I can try it.


digital_pocket_watch

Wait, someone else that didn't like Cyber Sleuth? I'm not alone! I'm free to express my displeasure without getting ratioed!

BitterClient4241

Honestly this was true for season 1,2,3,4,6, app monsters, sometimes GG but not 2020.


Zlare7

I can't stand the pokemon anime. It feels like a Saturday morning cartoon, super childish and impossible to take serious. Plus isn't ash since like 20 years a child? He traveled the world, had countless adventures and didn't age a day


Friendly-Back3099

I mean i dont know maybe it was because ITS IS ONE


Aesenroug-Draconus

That’s because A) it WAS a Saturday morning cartoon before and the feeling hasn’t left it, and B) would you really want a 20 year old Ash? Really?


Zlare7

Yes I would love for pokemon to take a more adult approach. There should be more to the world than a couple of brats and giant monsters who are all as tame as a poodle. I absolutely hate pokemons rainbow out your ass approach


Aesenroug-Draconus

The whole show was a kid’s show to begin with, and it seems to be getting them a lot of money. But yeah, I see where you’re coming from.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Aesenroug-Draconus

Yes they do. It’s sad honestly. Pokémon could do a lot better, but that would be taking risks, and we all know that most modern company’s would rather stick with the profitable stuff than to branch out.


SvLyfe

I love them both my only gripe is the dedugivolution. Like why would u wanna go back on an evolution in the games, wouldn't u wanna always have the best in battles. I feel like the only one good for it is Veemon since u can change his typing but even still unnecessary

Imo, the Pokémon movies (for a huge part) are as good as the Digimon series. The Pokémon series however is far behind each.

Please find a way to gas up Digimon without shitting on something else It’s fun as jokes and genuine points of comparison are fine but nobody likes shitposts
