Yup, completely true.
It really is just incredible insipid. The world building in Pokemon games is just about the lamest thing imaginable. It's ALWAYS "look how Pokemon are our friends and how they work with us!" It's the most basic 'happy co-existence' setup that's regurgitated to no end. The villain are usually some generic twats who do want to abuse Pokemon for their purposes and the primary legendary Pokemon (from the cover) have their usual world-forming role. Each MCs generic story path needn't even be mentioned.
It's just so devoid of creativity and no thematic depth that would be beneficial to children even if the younger ones don't actively notice that.
The idea that it's for kids and should henceforth be utmost trite writing is laughable. Even when I was very young I vastly preferred the Digimon anime series over the Pokemon one because it had so much better storytelling and all.
