The reason your were banned was for getting out of hand with generally toxic behavior.
In this case, you were saying that the Pokemon franchise's monetary success to claim that GameFreak's budget should allow for a much larger team and more ambitious games. While this stance is fine, the way you presented it was accusatory, calling the devs incompetent, calling server members ignorant, etc.
I can lift this ban, but keep in mind the difference between having/sharing opinion and presenting it in a way that brings down other people.

If it comes to that (and I'm guessing it will given how people generally react to Pokemon news and the anniversary around the corner) pinging a mod is usually the way to go.
And, while I know Discord's block feature is useless for actual blocking, I tend to use it as a way to remind myself that a particular person isn't worth the time/effort responding to.
