but The pokemon metagame has never had good balance, there have been overpowered strats in every gen, in-game and competitive.

Even now, post-Dexit, we still have incineroar, landorus, or whoever the hell is new jazz dominating. You said it yourself balancing 50 characters is hard. Unless youre advocating cutting the dex down to less than that, Im skeptical making cuts is the right direction to go.

Asking Gamefreak to balance the 200 most popular pokemon is probably equivalent to the task load they have now. By gen 4 there were probably already 200 fully evolved pokes, and no one said we needed dexit back then.
