Where does the whole "Most of the new Johto Pokémon can only be found in Kanto" mantra even come from?Even if you only take into account the vanilla GBC versions of Gold & Silver, 83/100 can be found within Johtonian borders, which is a perfectly acceptable ratio if you ask me.If you DO take into account HGSS, the number goes up to 95/100.What exactly is the issue here?
>>59688257it's trolling/rage-baiting
>>59688257>83/100 can be found within Johtonian bordersit should be 100/100
>>59688269you bought it anyway
Nobody cares about the HGSS distributions. It doesn't instill nostalgia or childhood memories. The mantra comes from Murkrow, Slugma, and Houndour only being available in Kanto in GSC.
>>59688269Why? You can't even catch all the Kanto Pokemon in one copy of a Kanto game, you have to trade for them from the other version, when has the standard been being able to get every Pokemon in one game?
>>59688257I'd argue that Johto Route 45, while not technically Kanto, helps in this perception because its the debut place of a few coolmons but when you get there your team is pretty much full.
>>59688288>You can't even catch all the Kanto Pokemon in one copy of a Kanto gameyes you can
>>59688257bare in mind this is only a problem because HGSS/GSC are the only games that have 2 regions, every other game has pokemon that can only be found after beating the game but they only have a single region.
>>59688295Nah
>>59688298wrong
>>59688257A lot of it is probably just perception too.Not counting the ones in the list that are already kanto only, 17 of these johto mons are evolve from or are baby forms of already existing kanto mons. And while you can find them in johto sure, they are still in a manner of speaking "from kanto"So in combination with the above that's like 20-25% of the entire dex that isn't natively from the region
>>59688303>it was first reported in 2002So 2 years after gen 2 released, meaning no one was coming into gen 2 thinking they'll be able to catch all gen 2 Pokemon in their game
>>59688309completely irrelevant to the discussion at handyou CAN catch all kanto pokemon in one copy of RBY.
>>59688257New Pokemon should never be locked to post-game outsisde of legendaries. DP sucks for the same reason
>>59688315It's extremely relevant, see >>59688288>when has the standard been being able to get every Pokemon in one game?Definitely not going into gen 2
>>59688257Huh? If a Pokémon is found in Kanto, it's a Kanto Pokémon. If a Pokémon isn't found in Johto, then it's not a Johto Pokémon. Simple as
>>59688257It comes from how a lot of these are rare, hidden away shitmons when common strong Kantomons like Spearow, Geodude, and Abra invalidate ever considering adding a Johto shitmon to your party.
>>59688341/threadand why isn't it 100/100?
>>59688297>every other game has pokemon that can only be found after beating the gameand they're old pokemon, or legendaries, or beldum. and beldum is bullshit too.
>>59688257Because Johto is the only region that's allowed to be criticized. KANTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO is untouchable and newfags throw a tantrum if anything slightly negative is said about any gen after Gen 2
>>59688356What a crybaby lil bro faggot bitch you are lmao
>>59688356t. born in 1994 and first game was crystal when pokemania died
