YMMV / SEER

Go To

  • Adaptation Displacement: Everyone's at least aware of the game, but some people are still more familiar with the show.
  • Archive Panic: The television show ended with 392 episodes, the most of any of Taomee's television series. It would take you around three days to complete the series without breaks.
  • Broken Base: The franchise itself suffers badly from a vicious fandom conflict between the game and the animated series. The continuity of the game also further divides the community.
  • Fanon Discontinuity: Many fans of the game choose to ignore the continuity of the animated series due to its story being seen as shallow, as well as the changes made to the characters compared to the game's canon.
  • Fandom Rivalry: There are many rivalries between the mon series fanbase.
    • Pokémon fans in particular are the most vocal in accusing SEER along with many other similar mon games of plagiarizing the game mechanics, and will also call the animated movies a shoddy knockoff.
    • Roco Kingdom and Aola Star were created by Tencent and Beioo respectively as an answer to Taomee's SEER. These three fandoms do not get along with each other and often accuse the competing works of plagiarizing gameplay and mon designs. It doesn't help that all of these fanbases are mostly young kids, ensuring petty conflict.
  • They Changed It, Now It Sucks!: In the game, due to the frequent updates, many returning players did not like the rapidly changing meta rendering them unable to compete with whales.
  • First Installment Wins: The first game has more content than the sequel and many people stick to it instead of shifting to the sequel.
  • Seasonal Rot: The animated films and TV show, due to the repetitive plotline and the discontinuity from the game.
  • Video Game Movies Suck: The animated film series is often derided for its weak story and animation, plus the fact that its release schedule clashed with the far more popular Qin's Moon movie.
  • They Copied It, So It Sucks!: A number of people are quick to accuse the SEER franchise of copying Pokemon, considering the amount of ideas the latter steals from the former (such as Poke Balls, a number of mon designs, etc.).
