hot take or something but the alola anime is actually really good, the entire internet at the time was just toxic when it aired

edit: we got to see bewear destroy a fucking ultra beast too

#been watching it lateely and 'memories in the mist' and many other episodes caused a lot of ugly crying #it just gets seriously good the later you get into it because they chose not to make an alolan movie and the quality of the season was- #-just better and even movie like at many moments #there were many reasons why it wasnt liked from it distorting the gameverse lusamine to the eevee discourse but #it's absolutely fun to watch rowlet on screen that is the most perfect character of the series #a lot of the themes are about family and overall meant to destroy depression by seeing the connection and bonds between the characters #like it was definitely a new formula but it was better than the galar formula (honestly the worst one that felt like a disservice) #and the alola formula was actually good and balanced and included more girls being involved #the galar anime felt. too solo. it only focused on 2 charcaters being the heroes and even the gameverse characters werent given enough #the alolan episode that just brought tears was when they were saving solgeleo and. everyone was involved. it was the true meaning of it. #all ofthe episodes are on pkmn tv for anyone who has been feeling awful lately
