pokemon mystery dungeon explorers games ARE the funniest flex in the franchise like. WHY did they have to make the story not only good but better than anything other pokemon game before or since. By all accounts the pmd games should be a silly little spinoff and instead they're like 'well. Doomed timeline apocalypse self-sacrifice true love narrative to traumatize the youth 🫡'. I think every spinoff made by a rando side studio for a major franchise should do this. they should all get a little silly with it
