What is so silly about my statement? The one (statement) I didn't even ever do. Please, be confrontational and explain me.

They announce a sandcastle pokémon, I dislike it, you extrapolate it to something that is on your own mind and only there, as if I said this means this gen is horrible compared to others and never happened before, or as if I said gen 1 or 2 were pits of creativity where everything made sense, or as if I said it's out of place with the lore or something else...

Seriously, you can't dislike anything related to Nintendo around here, nothing at all, or else...
Take it easy, stop being passive-aggressive, and don't put words in my mouth because you feel like being defensive when there wasn't ever even the need to be.

 

That's the Nintendo defense force for ya, they always believing dislike/hate is unjustified based on falsitys.

Excuse me?  You seem to have me confused for something else.  I've criticized Nintendo plenty and there are plenty of things they do that I find stupid (Wii U launch marketing), ignorant (the timing of and design of the new Paper Mario and Metroid franchises), cowardly (their head-in-the-sand WE DON'T COMPETE WITH MS/SONY! talk), ill informed (E3 2016), and overall just stupid choices (many in the past several years).  If you are going to accuse someone of being a defensive, illogical fanboy go look somewhere else.  

All I was getting at was  that normally the statement BraLod made is tied in with the idea that Pokemon has run out of ideas and the new gens have all these bad uncreative ideas.  What made me think this was "A sandcastle pokémon now? "  The Now implied that things were different than a previous time, hence the assumption.  If that's not what he meant, I am sorry.

I'm sorry, but I don't quite understand what you are saying here. What dictates a real Pokemon? As far as I know, the sandcastle was showcased in the trailer showing new pokemon, thus making it a real Pokemon. Unless I've missed something, which by all means I could have.

Pokemon seem to follow the same logic as the Japanese yokai. Which would mean anything can be a Pokemon. People who complain about inanimate objects need to remember that if Pokemon are based off of yokai (99% chance they are) that inanimate yokai are common and are even a sub group of yokai referred to as tsukumogami.

For example, theres the ever popular umbrella yokai:

 

here are other examples:

 

So people who complain about inanimate Pokemon need to chill XD not directed at you. But shows that theres no limit to what can be a Pokemon, potentially

Ahh, that makes more sense. It also explains why Klefki is a key chain. Well, thank you very much for clearing that up!

Alright you're good, my bads. There's been a lot of unreasonable defenders popping up lately (not just here) and dealing with them constantly is making me more aggro I guess. :L

Don't worry. BraLoD's native language isn't English and what he types occasionally does not reflect what he really means, so there's always a bit of a risk for miscommunication. It's worth keeping in mind to ask for clarification first, because even a correct interpretation of the words that are there does not mean that you will on the same page with him.

Meanwhile, Einsam_Delphin is that gangsta-type who thinks that he is always right, so in the past he has run into problems with various Nintendo fans who tried to tell him that his criticism regarding various topics was unreasonable. Not that they were always right either, but Einsam is incredibly stubborn.

 

So even if your ignorant assumption is true (it's not), that because you see someone thinking they're right in some instances they must also think they're right in all instances, then that applies to literally everyone. You who right now think you're right about this, and the people I've argued with thinking they're right about whatever topic. In short, it goes both ways, as does stubbornness obviously, since if I'm unmoving then so is the opposition. Thus what matters is not that one is stubborn (because everyone is), but why they are stubborn. If I'm stubborn because I have facts and reasons that say I'm correct, then there's no reason to back down. If my logic n reasons are proven wrong, yet I still say I'm correct, then I'm stubborn because I'm unreasonable and in denial.
