* If you sign up for a guild to be an exploration team, it's ''perfectly okay'' for said guild to run your entire life, tell you how to act and think, [[DisproportionateRetribution punish you for stupid things]], steal most of your money so you're helpless, and just generally treat you like crap. Those bad guys who make your life hell? They're always gonna get away with it, and you can never fight them and make them see reason. ''EVER.'' And Arceus help you if you even think about your friends who you recruit, because no matter how good they are, they're never good enough for Chatot. They're members of the Guild, and yet because they don't live in the Guild, they can't come with you on trips. Boy, [[SarcasmMode isn't that nice]]? Discrimination FTW. Oh, and you'll be part of this guild for the rest of your life, and they're gonna ambush you in the middle of the woods and they're not sorry about it. That's your life. Deal with it.
* If you come from the future, you should totally go on suicide missions and kill yourself. Everyone's cool with that, especially if they're getting saved.
* If someone spreads lies about you in a town, everyone you know and trust will turn on you and chase you out with the intention of killing you. All because of some unfounded rumor. And you have to travel through burning places and cold places to survive and they're not sorry.
* If bullies humiliate you, you can never fight back. You're sitting ducks and you deserve being torn to pieces by your boss, who is an arrogant jerk.

Nice try. Not only is it not an example of an aesop, this is very clearly an example of later-generation bashing.


* Using the most recognisable character(s) and creature(s) of the series isn't marketing. It's "Pandering". You should only use the ''new'' stuff to market your products!
** Your research showed that the most popular stuff and your most recognisable images are [[FirstInstallmentWins the earlier stuff?]] ''NEVER'' use ''that'' to try and market your products - nobody actually likes them anyway.
*** ''NOBODY'' likes Charizard. You know, [[https://gamerant.com/study-10-most-popular-pokemon-no-pikachu/ consistently the most popular Pokémon since the first generation]]. Nope. ''NOBODY'' likes Charizard.
** Those people who [[VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite absolutely bashed the times you did try something different]] actually liked it all along.

** Don't worry if you aren't actually able to do anything to protect the creature from harm. The mere act of trying to protect it will make it so the creature no longer needs protection.
