The only reason this isn’t a regional form is because they didn’t want to open the can of worms of establishing which region Kitakami is a part of.
>>56103601Nah, it’s to be be able to bring back polteageist while leaving this shitmon dexcut. If it was a regional form, GF would be forced to bring it back too.
>>56103613your Kanto Electrode and Alola Golem in Legends Arceus?
>>56103635>implying plass is a true mainline Pokémon gameIf a Pokémon is in sv, then its regional form is in the game too
>>56103601Kitakami is its own region, but the area we visit see is a small part of it.
>>56103601>open the can of worms of establishing which region Kitakami is a part of.Kitakami is in Kitakami, they aren't autistic realfags.Also, it doesn't work like a regional form, the line is reversed.
>>56103613You had 5 years.
>>56103601Then explain Toadscuel and Wugtrio? Sinistcha is a "convergent form" like those two lines, but why couldn't the former two just be regional forms? The answer is there is no reason and Gamefreak isn't following any kind of internal consistency with this stuff.
>>56103697dugtrio-kanto and dugtrio-alola are both moles and they can breed with each other.wugtrio can't breed with dugtrio because it's a completely different thing (a garden eel) that ended up resembling dugtrio by sheer coincidence. it isn't a mole that has adapted to live by the seaside.
>>56103684>the simipourfag is still copping Lol. some shitmons are permacut for a reason
>>56103682>region with only 1 townOrre, home.
>>56103777>by sheer coincidence>>56103697The answer is GF wanted to get to 1000 pokemon for SV and it was easier to recycle regional forms they already had as totally-not-paldean-form-and-actually-has-a-dex-number
>>56103939"sheer coincidence" is the in-world explanation, which is the same convergent evolution that can happen to real life animals. Of course game freak did it on purpose to reference this. is it lazy? no less than yet another my mom's dog/cat/bird
