Pokémon was a very successful global IP, but there were some problems in the animation production process that caused it to be criticized by audiences in some regions. The following are some common problems that can lead to worse animations: 1. Insufficient funds: animation production requires a lot of funds, and Pokémon's IP has a large number of fans and profits around the world, causing the producers to have some difficulties in terms of funds. This could lead to a decline in the quality of the animation, preventing them from investing more resources into producing better content. 2. Character design: The design of some characters in Pokémon's animation may be too rigid or not in line with the original setting. This might cause the audience to be disappointed with the animation and criticize the quality of the animation. 3. Storyline: The story of Pokémon has always been a hot topic. Some plots might be too monotonous and lack innovation, or some plots might be too cliché to attract the audience's interest. This could cause the audience to lose interest in the animation and affect its overall quality. 4. Animation quality: Pokémon's animation quality may vary in different regions. In some areas, the audience may think that the quality of the animation is good while in other areas, the audience may think that the quality of the animation is poor. This might be due to the cultural background and audience preferences of different regions. The success of Pokémon was partly due to its excellent storyline, high-quality animation production, and a wide audience base. However, if the animation producers could not solve these problems, it might lead to a decline in the overall quality and loss of global fans and profits.
