digimon but only non-burger dubbed tamers

Digimon, easily

I don't see Digimon being a billion dollar IP. Pokemon takes the cake here
Aiden Peterson
Digimon actually had a proper overarching story and a far more interesting world.
David Robinson
Digivoling was more mysterious. I remember when the cat turned into that angel I freaked out
Liam Jenkins
I liked both but I was like the only kid who really liked Digimon.
Digimon had way cooler shit going on but the story was very connected and if you didn't watch every episode you'd be lost.
Pokemon you could hop in at any episode and pretty much watch it without being completely lost.

It's not much of a debate, Digimon has superior cartoons, Pokemon has superior games.
This is basically factual.

Loved both. My 7 year old nephew views me as some kind of badass because I was a pokeyman OG.
Zachary Reyes
At least Digimon had a story line.

Digimon is an actual TV series with characters, plots, progression. Pokemon is basically a running advertisement for the games.
Brayden Campbell
wtf is this gay shit,
Yu-Gi-Oh is the superior cartoon.
Ian Scott
Digimon was way superior
Camden Fisher
The fact that Digimon talk and half of them are literally just humans in costumes always made me uncomfortable, even as a kid.
Pokemon at least occupy a zone somewhere between pets and friends. But Digimon you're left constantly wondering why these fully sapient creatures are so dependent on humans and treated like pets/accessories

Pokémon just felt like every episode was a repeat.
>Ash find new town
>Someone in some sort of need
>Team Rocket show up
>proceeds to try and steal Pikachu
>Fail
>"Blasting off again"
>Ash the hero
>rinse and repeat

The partner Digimon never look like humans in their base forms, and they're not pets, they're companions. Most Digimon mind their own business in their world, the only ones that have anything to do with humans is said partner Digimon for the heroes.

I have fond memories of watching the Digimon anime on Fox Kids when I got home from school on my shitty poverty tv with rabbit ears.

They aren't? I don't think you ever watched Digimon.
Justin Wright
Pokemon, easily.
Digimon was barely shown when I watched, so Pokemon was my jam.

As a show, Digimon mogs the fuck out of Pokemon. Games are more of a debate even if that's Pokemon's realm.
Henry Gonzalez
I remember them but I didn't watch either. There was Shaman King also, another I didn't watch though I don't think that was a mon show.
Justin Hall
idk I played the games more than I watched the anime, which play basically the same as Pokemon but your team is made up of grown men in cosplay
The one I remember playing you even stored your digimon on a farm and had to provide them with food and toys and shit, even though you spend most of the game in a digital civilization made by/for digimon
Like why are half of them seemingly fully independent creatures that live full lives with jobs and shit, while some are confined to be basically livestock for humans to fight with?
Ryan Bailey
I didn't watch much of Digimon but the movie was the shit back then
Jose Howard
I had the GBA game
Blake Flores
Well that has nothing to do with the show. There's no collecting like Pokemon. It's more like a straight fantasy adventure. Digimon are just the residents of their world.
Jonathan Reed
pokemon without a doubt.
Ayden Mitchell
Most digimon have plenty of agency. 99% of what they do is their choice. It's repeatedly shown that enslaving and mind controlling them is wrong, that's what most of the bad guys are doing. The heroes fight against that.
Meanwhile, in Pokemon, the whole point is to enslave all these retarded, semi-sentient creatures, keep them in little balls like collectors' items, and force them to beat the shit out of each other.
Jordan Gutierrez
Pretty sure Digimon gave me more feels.
