Re: Check Out This New YouTube Channel For Negativity-Free Pokémon Chat

@BlueBCA Hi, thank you very much for subscribing!

You've nailed it. The channel won't be criticism free at all (I agree about the quality decline, but rather than funnel that into anger and dwell on everything negative, I hope to fairly point out any flaws whilst also highlighting the positives- which do still very much exist).

As you say, it's more about having a friendly, accepting space. If I present the discussion in a brighter way, and try to encourage thoughtful, respectful comments in response, then hopefully it can be a place where people feel like they're allowed to chat about their hobby without having lots of strangers telling them how wrong they are for enjoying it 😅

Hey everyone. Just to chime in on the 'negativity-free' discourse we're already having... 😅

As Gavin's already perfectly said above, this 'doesn't mean ignoring the bad'. Fair criticism will very much be a part of the channel, but instead of jumping on the bandwagon of 'Pokémon's bad' and slating it at every opportunity, I'll instead be focusing more on the positive aspects and discussing Pokémon as a hobby that brings us joy – which for most fans, is (hopefully) the case. 🙂

@Rhaoulos All staff are encouraged to vote for their personal top picks of the month for this feature – obviously, this won't always line up with the thoughts of the single reviewer for each title, and staff members won't have played every single game on the list.

The voting process is explained at the bottom of the article 🙂
