The responses of people to the leaked dark lore stories for Pokemon make it SO obvious that the majority just don't have critical reading skills or knowledge on global cultures.
Like PLEASE, read a book. The authors aren't inserting their fetishes. It's ALLEGORY. Nothing more.
Maybe I’m just weird but these stories are kind of beautifully written in an “ancient mythology” kinda way and it saddens me that the pokemon fanbase lacks the intelligence to discuss them without mentioning Diddy or Epstein.
