:We don't call the [[original series]] "Pocket Monsters" even though that's the official title. We need some sort of title to fulfill the "series" quota, with or without the [[core series]] game titles.

::But I don't get why we should follow a "quora" specifically for this occasion, when there's several arbitrary decisions around it. Pocket Monsters have the "EP" epicode instead of "RG", while for some reason Bulbapedia tries to force the Sword and Shield initials for this series all the while this series in particular is not even entirely based on said games. The "shin series" thing seems like a made-up explanation to justify another meaning for "SS", as no one in Japan calls it like that in the first place. Even the title provided in the article, '''新無印編''' ''new unnamed saga'', is nowhere near as commonly used as '''ポケットモンスター (2019)''' ''Pocket Monsters (2019)''. "New series" doesn't even match the "SS" epicode either. The "new series" will stop being new at some point; in fact you could argue it's not new, it's the "current" one. Most people refer to this series as Pocket Monsters (2019), or PM, PM (2019), etc, for short. I agree that this should be renamed to "'''Pocket Monsters (2019)'''". If for some reason the first series being named "original series" is a problem, then we could rename that one to "Pocket Monsters (1997)" as well. --[[User:Gabo 2oo|Gabo 2oo]] ([[User talk:Gabo 2oo|talk]]) 16:41, 12 December 2019 (UTC)
