I actually blame the fans for voting for the wrong thing in the polls he made
"YEAH GIVE US SHINY OF ALL POKEMONS FOR FREE"
"YEAH GIVE US TRADING CENTER ITS NOT USELESS!!!!!"
"YEAH GIVE US MULTIPLAYER EVEN IF THE GAME IS NOT FINISHED YET LOLOL"
"YEAH GIVE US DOUBLE EXP AND DOUBLE SHINY RATE lolololol"
This is a "gaming inflation" at it's finest
