What do you think about the animé's version of Pokémerica so far?
We know, it's official, Isshu is based on New York City. And it's obvious many of the Pokemon designs are influenced by big-city life, or are blatant tributes to America like Wargle.
So what about the anime's portrayal of Pokemerica?
I really enjoyed Shooti. Okay, the picture thing is probably going to get old really, really fast. But he's a good representation of what big city folk think about everyone who doesn't live in big cities, in reference to calling Masara Town a "hick town". If you aren't from a large city, they think you're a country bumpkin who doesn't know anything about the "real world". Seriously, I have relatives in Boston, Massachusetts, and they all think my entire state is just corn and soybeans, even though I live in the 13th largest city in the US.
Minezumi and Shikijika appearing were good choices. I hope to see Minezumi digging through trash cans in the city.
So what say you?
