Pokemon TCG Pocket’s Secluded Springs Set Disrespects a 25 Year Old Game

As a devoted fan, I can’t help but feel a special connection to the older games in the Pokémon series. These games are cherished not only for their introduction of countless new creatures, but also because they marked the beginning of many players’ journeys, adding an extra dose of nostalgia. This sentiment is especially strong when it comes to Generation 1 and its Kanto Pokémon, which continue to receive attention in modern games with updated regional forms, evolutions, and variations.
Generation 2 isn’t far behind in terms of nostalgic value for me and many other players. So, it’s somewhat unexpected that the A4a set of Pokémon TCG Pocket seems to pay more disrespect than homage to the beloved Pokémon Crystal game.
