What can pokemon do to recapture the stranglehold it had on pop culture in the late 90s/early 200s? Or was the original pokemania just lightning in a bottle.

    There's no way to recapture the magic of Pokemon. It was a phenomenon because there wasn't anything like it.

        Sword and Shield should have, as people had been waiting for years for an open-world Pokemon. If it had done more of what Palworld did before Palworld came out instead of just relying on brand recognition to shit out low-effort mediocrity it would have been on top of the world. But that didn't happen and here we are.

        [...]
        I think I prefer Marnie but it's mostly because her design is a 10/10.
        Nemona is really cute and hot but is also a fun rival.
        Both are great

        Honestly I think Marnie overrated but then I hate her hairstyle. Nemona has a fairly basic ponytail which is always good.

    I was in the 4th grade when pokemon came the US and was a huge pokemon gay for like 2 years. Watched the anine, played most of the games had all the merchandise was really into the card game. Even dressed as ash for Halloween in the fifth grade. I started slowly losing interest in the anime and toys after the 2nd movie. The last game I played was stadium 2. Lost interest completely after that and moved on to dbz.

    There's nothing wrong with never reaching that original fad height. Normies get bored of shit and move onto the next big thing, It's how they've always been.

    Second wind was the pokemon go era and game freak capitalized on it in the worst ways possible anyway. Pokemon sucks, but not because it's never reached the pokemania hype again

    They should unironically make a new "retro" Pokemon game that appeals to the people who are nostalgic for RSE and DPPt. Everyone I know from that generation still loves Pokemon, they just hate anything past the DS games, when Pokemon was desperately trying to reinvent itself for children.

    Just re-use FRLG's and RSE's sprites and make an official rom hack with some of nu-Pokemon's quality of life features and the fairy type. Make it more difficult because your market is 20-30-somethings who are familiar with Pokemon. Release it as a real April Fool's day joke for like $20-30 and watch the money roll in.

    it would need to try to do something new instead of each game essentially just being a remake of Yellow/Red/Blue but these games are made for severely autistic people and children so it'll never happen

    Pokemon literally has a bigger strangehold than it ever had. It's selling more than it ever has with the exception of Red and Blue, except unlike during RBY era, it now also has fifteen side games going on like, namely Go.
