I don't get how people get hung on choosing a server when people have been chosing a starter Pokémon since 1998 without any major issues. And you get just about the "same" amount of practical info.
Really, what tiktok does to a generation...
Picking a starter is easy. Everyone knows that pokémon is a game about collecting creatures, and everyone knows what fire/ water/ grass is, so no one's gonna be stumped. Not everyone is gonna immediately know what an instance is, or what it does, or what it's there for
At least a blåhaj is kind of like a pokémon.
Im a french canadian plumber, nothing scream "have you tried unplugging and pluggin it again" more than that, yet here i am?
The people still on reddit will die with it, it's where they made their home and there will always be a reason to stay.
Everyone has heard of fire, water and grass, sure. Do they have any idea what that means in the Pokemon universe? I certainly hadn't.
You know how you might use gmail and your friend might use outlook and you can just email no problem? Like that.
