Yeah come to think of it, when you have to collaborate with other franchises or series for fictional crossovers, especially with different creators or companies, on a more frequent basis, it's a somewhat clear sign and indicator that you're in desperate need of turning out more fans and turning more profits just to stay relevant or even continue surviving as an active intellectual property.It's not like Pokemon needs to do any of that though, it's already one of the highest grossing franchises ever, whereas Yugioh and Digimon are much lower on the pecking order to my eternal chagrin.![]()
