Name that franchise!

Post by Yukaphile »

This is a fun little game I thought I'd create, simply for the purpose of name-dropping another franchise you love or follow when you look at another favorite franchise that has similarities to the first, however superficial.

I'll go first.

"Pokemon is Doctor Who!"

Think about it! I mean, Poke Balls are probably bigger on the inside, Pokemon "evolve" into a new state of being that includes not just physical changes, but a shake-up of their personality, similar to the Time Lords, and then there's the fact our main hero is a wandering adventurer who constantly alters companions with each new iteration, and is technically ageless, timeless, given that they will never grow Ash up to age-appropriate levels. Thus, Pokemon is Doctor Who.

What do you guys think? Your turn! Whoever wants to go next. 8-)
