Masuda says it isn't specifically for kidsPokémon is a franchise for kids!
So I don't think there's a problem with some of it's work being aimed at older audiences. If anything I think it's expected when we have them claiming it isn't supposed to be just for children.
Okay so this explains a lot about 02, which I recall feeling rather bizarre and unfocused compared to the first season.I say 02 hit the wall after the Digimon Emperor arc because that's when creative issues boiled over. It's why you had plot threads like Daemon and and Dagomon lead to nowhere. Atsushi Maekawa and Genki Yoshimura were both head writers (as opposed to having one head writer like every other show) with different writing styles and it shows. Satoru Nishizono, the original head writer for Adventure, left because he did not want a sequel series. Tensions ran high enough that staff threatened to quit over the show like Chiaki Konaka. Tamers owes its existence to background idiocy.
Edit: Wow that was an awkward editing error...
