Me at age 9:
Narrator: it did
Seriously, is there anything about this character that is a “monster”? This is literally just a person in tight clothing
Whoever made the meme cropped out her wings and claws.
This is Lady Devimon. Digimon designs are very on the nose.

Digimon is so much better than pokemon. Besides, they were developed around the same time anyway, so it’s not possible for it to be a knock off. The ideas of monster hunting and taming isn’t exactly novel, wasn’t even original back then.
It doesn’t have much in common with Pokemon at all, IMO… I wouldn’t even describe the concept as “monster hunting and taming,” really. Both have kids who partner up with monsters that start out cute and endearing and evolve to more powerful forms… Which is a significant part of the premise, but the similarities fall off pretty sharply after that.
The Digimon anime was straight up fire. The digitations (?) were absolutely wild. Not like, it’s a bigger rat now but really insane. Loved it as a child
Unfortunately it suffered even more from the “it evolves into an anthropomorphic animal” syndrome than pokemon does…
Wait 'til you find out about Yu-Gi-Oh
It’s all covered over in the west anyway.
