-Digimon's 1 and 3 seasons are god tier, but everything else has been piles and piles of disappointment. Pokemon may not have been an amazing anime at any particular point, but it's been consistent enough to keep going for much much longer.
>Spin off games

>(almost) no straight up recolor monsters. Digimon has a bunch of em. Blackagumon, Blackgabumon, BlackGatomon, Psychemon, Tsukaimon, Saberdramon, I could go on. Closest thing pokemon has is regional variants, which are still the same species as their counterparts and aren't even just straight up recolors

>>33077346
digimon evolution IS consistent.
It's just a lot more interconnected. Multiple things can turn into greymon. and greymon can turn into multiple things. But they're always the same things, and everything starts from the same, like, 10 babies.

Which thing they turn into is based on how they're raised. You have to remember, digimon started as a tamagotchi.

>>33077402
>digimon evolution IS consistent.
I like digimon, but this is horseshit. Aside from the anime lines, things get swapped around so much that there are digimon who don't have ANYTHING they reliably evolve into or from.

>>33077402
>>33077346
The issue is that digimon PLOT is not consistent. With few exceptions, every series, every game, has a different explanation and world.

Some go so far as to not include any of the same monsters, such as Applimon, or to use completely different mechanics than any other thing in the series, like Xros.

What evolves into what is about the only thing that IS consistent.

>>33077380
Also, yeah, digimon has recolors that are less excusable even than Yokai Watch, because Yokai Watch has recolors because every monster has the exact same 4 moves and ability, they don't change except stat growth, so if you want something that is otherwise the same monster, but with a different ability, or a heal instead of a debuff, or whatever, you have to make a whole new monster, but you want it to look similar so people get "oh, it's the same thing but with 1 different move" Kind of like Alola Mon.

Digimon's recolors have no rhyme or reason to them, and aren't even necessarily related, in stat makeup or family.

>>33077338
She wants to fuck her brother, man.
Hosoda is one screwed up guy.

>>33077455
You can go on the wiki and see on every mon all the things they turn into and evolve from.

>>33077462
I mean, she did when she was like 6. No real evidence she retained it into adulthood.

>>33077402
Digimon has shared evolution lines, you lying scumbag.

Bakemon can eventually grow into Machinedramon given the right evolution path.

>>33077487
>multiple things can turn into greymon, and greymon can turn into multiple things
Even my image has cross-over in its tree.

Did you even read?

>>33077402
It's not though. Take a look at the most recent game, -next order-, if you want to start with the low levels, sure we have the staples in koromon, tsunomon, tanemon, but where are viximon? hopmon? Demiveemon? Yet, their evolutions are thrown in there still, just jumbled in to other evolution paths. What of armor evolutions? Last game we got 2 of them. Evolution paths have so little consistency across digimon media- ESPECIALLY for the no name digimon. Believe me as someone who really likes armadillomon. Sometimes its ultimate is shakkoumon, sometimes its triceramon, sometimes it can only armor evolve.
There's no definitive set of paths put down anywhere. Even if you look on the wiki, all the evolution paths are pulled from tons of different sources that may or may not carry over to another game or anime, depending on a whim. And HOW they evolve into which digimon is even less consistent since digimon games themselves can't seem to settle on a gameplay type.

In pokemon, it's kept the same with very rare exception to game mechanics they've dropped. Charmander will always evolve to charmeleon at level 16, in gens 1 through 7. Togepi will always evolve into Togetic through happiness, evolution stone pokemon continue to require evolution stones, trade pokemon continue to require being traded, glaceon and leafeon will continue to require those shoehorned locations, etc. If you knew a pokemon in gen 1, you know what and how it evolves in gen 7 20 years later because GF kept it consistent all this time.

>>33077558
Heck, even just look at the chart you posted here >>33077402
It has Gatomon -> Nefertitimon, which, sure established by the second season anime. But when has nefertimon ever evolved into Mihiramon? Check the wiki and neither are listed on each others' pages. Mihiramon doesn't even have any evolutions noted. Same thing for Mihiramon to Baihumon. So where did these connections come from? What sources say these digimon can evolve this way? It probably just a fan-made tree, yet most of these lines are actually plausible and even logical enough to be believable. But there's no consistency throughout the series to definitively say 'yes this is right,' or 'no, this digimon can't evolve into that'
Taking it a step further, where were any of these guys in the games? Looking at just the past 2 major games, next order and cyber sleuth, none of those three digimon are even in it, let alone evolving down that path!

In pokemon, even the garbage joke pokemon are still there, available to get or at least trade over every single generation.

Also, the only path to magnadramon is gatomon ->bestumon -> Magnadramon?
Fuckin seriously?

>>33077558
Just because they don't include some mon in a game doesn't mean the trees changed.

Now, I agree that its stupid for them to often go go "we just decide not to program crobat this game. Zubat stops at golbat in this one."

But crobat does still come from golbat in any case where both are in the same game. And since Crobat also evolves from gligar, if crobat is is in a game but golbat and zubat aren't, it'll evolve from gligar, and vice versa.

As for Evolutions methods, yes absolutely but they also just change the actual stats. You literally couldn't leave them the same. But I already brought up mechanical inconsistency.

>>33077948
forgot pic

>>33077948
but that's not always true either. All the way back in Digimon world, greymon could digivolve into Vademon. The next game they both appear in, Cyber Sleuth, they're completely unrelated. Digimon world DS had a bunch of these and it pissed me off. Cyberdramon is supposed to be able to evolve into Justimon, as established by the anime. Both are in the game, but aren't connected at all. Angewoman can evolve into MarineAngemon in some cases (DS, next order) but sometimes can't (cyber sleuth) despite both being in the same game. Leomon can evolve to Monzaemon in DS, but not in cybersleuth or next order (in which, again, both appear)
As you're saying it, sure you could go across every digimon media and cobble together an evolution chart with every possible branching path and say, "Hey, a greymon evolved into a Zudomon once in an obscure japanese audio drama, that means its definitely part of greymon's evolutionary line!" But who knows what in the digimon series would follow that- if anything. There's no master list out there that says everything every digimon has the potential to evolve into- and if there were, then there's a lot of contradictions out there and it's all just a big pile of shifting sands. Next game that comes out and you get yourself an agumon, do you know FOR CERTAIN all the evolutions it's going to have?

Pokemon's system is more or less set in stone. They have a set number of pokemon, all with set evolutions. Sure it's a more limited system, but it's consistent and has been consistent for 20 years, while digimon just hasn't.

>>33078201
Hmm. I have been misled.

So is digimon closer to persona then?

>>33078280
don't ever compare SMT to the shitheap known as digimon again

>>33073158

>>33077952
I'd have also added Crobat evolving into Mega Gengar for laughs and Noivern can also become Zekrom. Gliscor can branch into Landorus (Therian)

>>33077218
>In quantity, not necessarily quality.
I'm pretty sure you got that backwards, digimon's the one that has a shit ton of humanoids or just actual human women as their "digital monsters"

He said only an insane person would not want to sex this humanoid canid.
(see >>33079252)

I stated the reasons why someone would probably not want to do that, i.e. reasons that, regardless of how you feel about it morally, it just objectively would not be universally enjoyable. Reasons sited were the vastly different mouth, an overabundance of hair when many people don't want any hair, and obstructively large aural fixtures.

He said "do you not have a pet? their fur feels fine"

I said, "have you ever tried to tongue kiss that pet? It is by no means the human mouth your are biologically predisposed to appreciate"

>>33079427

Why do furfags like you make me want to constantly question myself "Why do are we still tolerating people like these?" But you do you, whatever.

>>33079810
They are beings made of magical energy.
This is why they can be broken down into a form you can store in a ball/artifact, how many attacks work, and the reason for type weaknesses, even why Doduo is immune to ground type moves.

This also explains what evolutionary stones are (deposits of magical energy of one type), and why Arceues and its follower's alchemy requires combinations of different types; they are mixing magical energies.

It also explains why they seem to in many ways effortlessly defy conventional physics, or do unexplainable things like be living inanimate objects.

>>33079883
First two seasons of Digimon are way better if you're not watching the 4kids dub.

Izzy is a person not just the token nerd.
Matt isn't a "muh cool and edgy loner who also wants to be the leader" nor a jerk to his younger brother. Instead he's just got a lot of self-doubt, and is very protective of the little ADHD constantly-life-endangering dip.
And similarly, Joe isn't a cowardly worrywort, he's the oldest, and resultantly feels responsible for getting all of these idiot elementary schoolers out of magical jurassic park vietnam in one piece.

Also, no injection of non-canonical Sora-Tai shipping, and they don't try to combine 3 unrelated OVAs into one movie with an illogical storyline and really bad editing that they hope kids won't notice.

This is also why they don't have individual names, and just refer to each other by species.
It's the same reason SU Gems refer to each other by gem type, or Wall-E robots by their model number.
They are programs, constructs, they are the purpose they were created for, and aside from individual experiences there's no real distinctions between any two given specimen unless one of them has become defective.

Other little-known trivia:
Digivolution is normally permanent and occurs based on how much data they absorb from things they eat and defeated enemies. The only reason it's ephemeral in the show is they keep using human friendship-powered devices to temporarily progress to the next stage without enough resources, at the cost of losing an equally large chunk when they revert. Which is also why they dropped to younger and younger forms the higher they evolved.

Speaking of, they do not actually die when they fall in battle. The damage makes their form destabilize, so they lose all that accumilated data and revert to their emptiest and most stable form, the egg, starting the cycle all over again.

digimon also has a lot less media than pokemon does.

also, pokegirl threads were about 1/4 to 1/3 the content of /v/ at any given time pre-/vp/. each individual pokegirl has a larger fanbase than all the digigirls combined

That's a good thing. Depending on HOW you raise your monster it evolves into something differently.
>Digimon's 1 and 3 seasons are god tier, but everything else has been piles and piles of disappointment. Pokemon may not have been an amazing anime at any particular point, but it's been consistent enough to keep going for much much longer.
Pokemon anime consistent? Yeah, I'm sure that having a forever 10 year old that every time he goes to a new region forgets even the most basic shit about being a trainer is more consistent than every Digimon anime taking place in a different universe with a different set of rules and a complete consistent storyline with begining and end.
