If you really do think about it, Pokémon is pretty damn dark, yes, it’s cute, the creatures are adorable, The Pokémon Amie option makes you wanna squeal out in cuteness.

Then you have Ghetsis, in the manga, he’s the absolute worst, He flat out says that he never had any parental love from the beginning, tied the Gym Leaders to stakes and engages in violence such as freezing cities while people are still in then and N is more of a dick in it.

Pokémon Adventures manga being rated A for All Ages?, FUCK THAT, Give it a T rating.

This is why the AU is much darker, I even made Pytka a Bratva leader for crying out loud.
