>introduce new cross-gen evolutions >the majority of them are locked behind the national dex and not a single NPC uses them in the main gameI'll never understand the reasoning behind this
>>58547543But how else can I praise the game for how much postgame it has on reddit?
>>58547543I just see it as the old version of DLC. It's definitely stupid as fuck. Like if I was a dev at GF and I knew a third version was coming up, I wouldn't put BF in RS if it was going to be one of the main things that will put it apart from the base games. I need to make a reason for people to purchase the 3rd version somehow
>>58547543I’ll give you a hint. The regional dex had 151 pokemon in it for some strange reason.
>>58547543The reason was money. A lot of those excluded cross gen pokemon were exclusive to certain gba games. You’d have to buy fire red, leaf green, ruby, and saphire to get them all. Then they could sell you Platinum later for even more cash. Then platinum wouldn’t have a few dp exclusive pokemon like glameow, mismagius or honchkrow in it to catch, so you’d still need to buy dp for something to create a money wringing ouraboros.
>>58547707Having now looked through a list of cross-gen evos this actually makes so much sense it's kind of mind blowing. Most cross-gen evos locked behind the natdex are Kanto or Hoenn evolutions and even a few Johto evos were available in the post game of Emerald or FRLG.
>>58547707You had online trading at this point though
>>58547543Almost like the game doesn't end at the credits or something........
>>58547543How long until you understand DP will always be the objectively worst Pokémon game ever made? Even Let's Go Pee, BDSM and SwooShit are better
>>58547866cause scat vomit are objectively the worst
>>58547866>>58547894>objectivelyYou're both autistic.
>>58547854Majority of the fanbase now are at the age where they only know the older games in the context of playing through them on an emulator or doing nuzlockes, not as their daily driver primary game.I'm 30 and started with fucking 3rd Gen, and if I had gotten into it at a more appropriate time would have probably been gen 2, most users on this board are aged 16-24.People won't understand the old games anymore, hell, people misunderstand what postgame means in the context of pokemon (it's not just story content / episodes placed after the credits that's for sure.)
>>58547894HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>58548063that’s what I said when I played scat vomit too
>>58547543They were too powerful and recently discovered so only the strongest trainers could use them in the postgame
>>58548078nice try but we know you didn't play it kiddo
>>58548078>>58548091inb4 these same two guys that always do this spam another thread to the bump limit

>>58548095>but my boyfriend said... but my review bombing... but...I guess with your logic I can just post how SV is the best selling Pokémon game in Japan and therefore must be the best too huh lmaoGo back when you have actual material kiddo
>>58548120>b-but muh wife’s boyfriend bought me an extra copy one after my vasectomy so I had to be good!kek 3.5, fucking dogshit shovelware
>>58548095Should be lower.
you just know that these fags fav game is something gay like colosseum
>"it's bad because these think it's bad!">Well, more people think it's good, in Japan no less so according to your logic...>"N-NO THAT... DOESN'T COUNT..! C-KEK!"Less deranged unovan trying to make an argument right here. Do better or no more Yous
>poodea redditor think a 4chan reply is just like xher updootsof course
>>58548172What's wrong with colosseum? XD is better of course

>>58547779>just now realizing that pokemon has been pulling this shit for over two decadesCmon man
>>58548495Togekiss is only used in PlatinumThe entire dex is actually, since you need to see everything for the postgame.
>>58547543Because they couldn't get a dex number of 151 if they included them.
>>58548495>dp>>togekiss E4She only uses it post-game (because Togepi was post-game locked in Sinnoh until they added Cynthia giving you the egg in Platnum)
>>58548534I hvae four hours of sleep
>>58548495C'mon anon don't be that autistic, you know I meant the evos that were locked behind the natdex
>>58547543Masuda wanted to pander to KANTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO by having the regional dex be 151, and his personal favorites like the many water types were too important to pass up on.
