Pokemon is better than yu gi oh

Rebuttals"You explain how there are lifelong fans, however the majority of these children start playing at the age of 8 years old. The majority seem to fully understand the game at the age of 12. Since the game is so complicated, it is difficult for children to enjoy it as well. Also, the average yugioh players stop investing or playing by the age of 35. Not so life long now is it?"The article you linked to made no mention of when the average Yu-Gi-Oh! player quits the game. Unless you can provide a proper citation for this statement then it should be considered to be invalid.Also, I would like to point out that the article you linked to actually says, "Yu-Gi-Oh is somewhat similar to Pokemon. It is more complex than Pokemon. Plus while Pokemon emphasized collecting ALL the monsters, Yu-Gi-Oh emphasizes strategy (hopefully easier on the pocketbook)."[1] Your own source refutes some of your previous points."Though this is true, pokemon games are much more popular and receive more money per game. Pokemon X and Y alone sold over 1 million units in a day. "Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's Wheelie Breakers" Only sold 0.10 million."Again, popularity is not the same as quality. This point is irrelevant."The art does not make it better. Also, art is opinionated, some people see pokemon's anime art better. Also you did not mention if you meant the card's art or the anime. And I believe in the anime, pokemon has better artwork."The artwork of a show or game can indeed make it better. Yu-Gi-Oh! has better artwork in the TCG and the anime. While art may be subjective, that does not mean that there are not different levels of quality and skill displayed in different works of art. The art style in Yu-Gi-Oh! is far more intricate and complex."When I play pokemon with my friends, we usually compare pokemon, trade a talk about other players on-line we have faced. Usually we are amazed by each others pokemon and speak about strategies to catch the best pokemon, or how we should set up our team. And usually we yell in amazement on how powerfull they are. When I play yugioh, it's usually putting card's down, and occasionally saying "good move" or "nice card". And then stating your attack. This isn't very social if you ask me."Perhaps Pokémon is a more enjoyable social activity for you and your friends because you enjoy it more? As I said before, the Pokémon hobby is experienced mainly through the video games, a non-social activity for the most part. In contrast, Yu-Gi-Oh! is experienced mainly through the TCG, an inherently social activity."Pokemon has a better anime. Though both animes aren't very good, pokemon is better. It is more entertaining, and follows one story, with a variety of interesting rivals and side characters. Yugioh keeps changing, and everyone loses interrest. Look at yugioh zexal, it is just terrible."My opponent did nothing to prove that Pokémon has a better anime. He simply asserted it. His statement that Zexal is terrible and that everyone loses interest in Yu-Gi-Oh! also went unsupported. The fact that Yu-Gi-Oh! has had multiple incarnations is, in the minds of many, one of its greatest strengths. The fact that the series have an ending and resolution can be very enjoyable."The manga is all connected. In Yugioh, all the series are separated. In pokemon adventures, the trainers meet. For example when yellow and gold met. This makes the manga more interesting."Again, connection is not inherently superior to resolution."A pokemon team can be good with any pokemon if you play the game properly. In Yugioh, the better the deck you have, the better you are, which doesn't measure the skill of the player, but how rich he is, or how lucky he got with the deck he got."Considering that thought goes into which cards to buy and that players also have the option of trading for cards, this point is irrelevant.Voting pointsI would now like to offer some voting points, or things that the voters should consider while making their decisions. 1. My opponent did not respond to my assertion that Yu-Gi-Oh! involves more strategy. 2. My opponent failed to properly prove that the Yu-Gi-Oh! manga is inferior. 3. My opponent's own sources confirm my points. 4. My opponent's main argument for Pokémon's quality was its popularity, which is a fallacy. Thank you for debating me.
