Usage notes[edit]
This is a fun one because the tonal whiplash between the image of an oddly-specific Pokémon with a perfectly innocuous appearance and the serious accusation that happens to be associated with it is especially funny out of context. Applin. Apple Core Pokémon. Grass/Dragon. Scandals: 1.
Whether a claim of this form is true in any objective sense is complicated. If you think that activities can't be a scam if they're things people do socially, you won't believe microtransactions are a scam. If you have enough money to somehow enjoy some particular event along with other people, you will make excuses that any case of somebody sorting you into a particular activity and then owning it and making bad decisions about how much to charge you for it is generally okay if that person "created it". It depends on whether somebody feels positively or negatively about the notion of microcolonies.
