Let's say that ITTL, Satoshi Tajiri's parents manage to solve his "delinquent habits" of skiving off school to play arcade games, with Tajiri instead managing to get good grades, progress to university and succeed in his childhood ambition to become a professional entomologist. As such, Game Freak is never created, and neither is the Pokemon franchise. How much of an impact do you imagine that this might have had?
