#the thing abt pokemon to me is like. their modern problems are not the same as ours because they live in a pseudo-fantasy world

once saw one of those pokémon-irl blogs mention climate change in a post. and it made me irrationally mad because the pokémon world was created with the idea that there weren't things like climate change (or racism or other big issues like that) in it. there's a story told with galar mons (corsola, weezing) that it was a thing in the past but there's not like...... a modern threat of melting ice caps. or burning fossil fuels. in pokémon.

but i would be breaking the immersion of the like. roleplay. if i went "HEY JSYK CLIMATE CHANGE IS A THING OF THE PAST IN POKÉMON" in the notes lmao

#the thing abt pokemon to me is like. their modern problems are not the same as ours because they live in a pseudo-fantasy world #when factories started churnin out toxins weezing started filtering them. they don't make fuel from fossils they make life from them #and on the reverse side kyurem gets pissy or kyogre and groudon start fighting and it fucks something up #different world! different problems! #pokemon #fey rambles #// i posted this once but then remembered galarian climate change and redid it lol
