There should be some kind of notation for companies to indicate their generation or change of hands. Like whenever the CEO changes a II or supercript 2 is added. Otherwise you see McDonald's and still think it's the same old company from the 1900's.
I wonder if it should even be legal to keep a company's name unchanged when they from a normal 1-man ownership to a room of chairs or a den of shareholders.
It would be far more difficult to get away with buying and ruining a series.

Yeah, but that exactly is the point of "branding" from a marketing perspective. To create an abstract identity that is recognizable for the customer, regardless of underlying context. They won't do what you want, since the very point of the entire practice is that you should not care or even know about it, just shut the fuck up and blindly consume their products and give them money.
With that said, deals like that are usually public (I think they even must be, legally? not sure about that), so technically, you can follow the trail, it is just obfuscated by a marketing layer, since most people do not care.

BTW, in a interview with a former Capcom employee is shilling Nintendo by saying that Palworld "crossed the line".
Majority are pissed, gamers and otherwise. Japanese and not.

Pokemon at this point is the Overwatch of Japanese games. The only thing you get excited about is new characters to fap to

Pretty much was the case during SWSH release.
Overwatch was a fiscal success, but the game itself alongside with it's fanbase are so disgusting, it's so rigid and foul. But hey, at least the porn is what made me love Mei and Zarya.
