Less likely to be a coomer, but still probably a coomer.
I think it'd be less about MY life, but life in general. Pokemon is so huge that I'd be willing to bet that if Pokemon never existed, anime as a whole would've been damaged quite a bit, or rather weebs would've been less of a thing, as Pokemon was a big foot in the door for anime in the west, and ended up making such a huge amount of money that it caused tidal waves in all kinds of fields, ranging from everyone trying to make Pokemon clones, to everyone making Pokemon TCG clones, to marketable plushies in general. Heck, 4kids would've probably done far worse overall without Pokemon since that was kinda their cash cow.
Gameboy sales would've been way worse in the west too.
Frick, I wonder if any of those "Youtube essayists" have ever covered something like this?
I mean, literally the #1 highest grossing media franchise in global history disappearing into thin air, that would change the timeline quite a lot.
Man, I'm even thinking of those Japanese towns that theme themselves after Pokemon or have Pokemon mascots to represent them.
Where would Nintendo even be without Pokemon?
What fricking iceberg have I just uncovered???
I barely play that much, probably a few couple hundred hours a year if that. If you compare that to my CS:GO addiction I had when I was 16-20, it's far less impactful (I was averaging about 1,000 hours a year). If anything, I would just have more hours in that,
Better.
Don't know. For all I know, I could've sneezed on February 12, 2005 and changed the trajectory of my life forever.
the same because palworld just dropped
The same, I dont play Pokemon that often mostly just for battling.
It's impossible to imagine due to how early pokemon has started impacting my life. It'd probably be nothing like my current life
Raping actual animals probably
Checked.
Btw,my porn addiction to 2d pokemon characters mommies/brown girls,would be cut for an abundant 75%
I'd either be fricking a bad b***h rn, selling drugs, or dead.
You will never be a real woman

i'd be a bit less of a degenerate, probably
Another videogame franchise become the new Pokémon, nothing Is changed basically.
It would be fine because Palworld exists
Dunno. Wouldn't be here, though, so probably better off
I would be free

Yes
I'd probably be more into comics or something.
Or even, *shudder*, Digimon.
Pokemon was a catalyst for losing my virginity
Yep
