I think Digimon is still a direct competitor to Pokemon in Japan since games and toys are still being made over there. I doubt Nintendo would have ever been okay with that. Not to mention both franchises are made to sell toys. Isn't Takara Tomy & Hasbro the main company that makes Pokemon figures? I doubt Bandai wants to do a crossover with a toy company that they are rivals with. It would be like if they made a Gundam vs. Transformers crossover. So I doubt a real Pokemon vs. Digimon will ever happen.

On the other hand, Pokemon is already on Smash, and Digimon has a rather loving relationship with Sony/Playstation, give or take a couple of betrayals with the DS games (good games, but not very loyal of Digimon to cheat on Sony like that).

On the one hand, they put Ryu in, and I have a hard time recalling any Street Fighter game on a Nintendo game system, so that was out of left field itself.

I guess sub-liscences can work in odd ways seeing that Play Arts Kai and Mcfarlane toys can make Halo figures.

Well, I'm forcing Sideswipe to watch Tamers.
We're 4 episodes in, and recently decided to watch it subbed over dubbed because he was finding the dub's mild changes to be a little grating.

I wonder if Saban will release Tri for a limited release in theaters similar how Funimation did with the DBZ movies. I think it could do well since there is the nostalgia from kids growing up in the 90's and early 2000's who are now adults.

I went to watch Digimon on Netflix...and it was only subbed. Now, the sub voices certainly were a lot better, but I can't watch Digimon subbed. It's too weird. I want to watch the version I grew up with.
