Pokmon captured people's attention in 1996 when the first games were released for the Nintendo Game Boy
There is a middle ground though where there will be times when you have no creatures on the battlefield and are spending five mana to put a 4/4 creature on the battlefield with no abilities

It has the Flash mechanic, allowing it too be cast at Instant spell speed, and when it enters the battlefield it becomes a copy of any creature that's on the battlefield

Sure, its a little expensive for just that, but it will be doing much more than that almost all the time
