>year 2025>still no common housefly Pokémon with the bug/normal typingI thought this franchise is based of the author's childhood interest in catching bugs, why can't there be a mon for one of the most common insect.
>>58671902Same reason why there aren't any assault rifles in TF2It's generic, it's obvious, it's uninspired
>>58671902That really should happen, huh?No weird shit for a generation, just fill out all the missing spots in the Pokedex, make stuff that everyone will look at and think "yeah, that should already have been here"
>>58671910and it is also a very convenient mon to have, get on it GF
>>58671902People would bitch they they’re running out of ideas
>>58671910It's totally possible to make it good
>>58671918Sure. But they also just crapped out taunie and mega feraligatr, I wouldn't put it past them to flub that too
>>58671910You could easily make a cute housefly pokemon Honestly I'm a big fan of continuing to make a lot of very normal pokemon, to prevent the series from going off the rails as they need to keep making more unique feeling ideas
>>58671902>I thought this franchise is based of the author's childhood interest in catching bugsYeah, bugs as in beetles, butterflies and that sort of stuff, no sane Japanese kid cares about catching flies
>>58671902Which is an historical falsehood, bugs are only a tiny portion of what originated pokèmonalso, Tajiri has nothing to do with pokèmon since GS, so it's been over 25 years without "the author" as you put it
