* Ribbons are basically badges or achievemens that you earn on a pokemon. They can be from something like being a part of the team that made it all the way through the Elite 4 (main game content), Beat the Battle Tower (end game content), or do the various "Dog show" style games (Side content) - there are other things like maxing out all the special show attributes, walking so many steps with the pokemon on the team, or straight up spending $1,000,000 in game. A Ribbon Master pokemon is a single pokemon that has been taken from XD or Colloseum from game cube, brought through every generation since, and has every possible ribbon. This takes considerable time and planning since at times you have to keep it under a certain level or teach it moves to get through one show, then teach it new moves to get a different type of show. Now, with the dex cut, if your ribbon master was not one of the ones that made the cut - your ribbon master is incomplete, and can never be complete. * I disagree, while this might shake up the meta in the interim, just like with MTG it's going to fall into the same new meta. But now we are limiting people in other types of tournaments - like the tournaments that only use the pre-evolution pokemon, or tournaments that rely on certain types - it greatly reduces the pool, or in some cases make certain teams impossible (not enough dog type pokemon anymore to have a dog team). In any case, this didn't "fix" anything competitively, and in fact probably made it worse. * This actually hurts competetive. A smaller move pool of teachable moves, as well as taking away some of the moves that were unique to older generations that are no longer teachable now. This makes competetive more predictable. No longer can you see an articuno and be surprised by a heal bell (which could only be learned from previous generations) Egg moves were a surprise that you could bring into competetive, we no longer have that which even further means that "rogue tech" can't surprise meta games. * Maybe nostaliga was the wrong word, maybe "bond" is better - some people had bonded with certain pokemon and brought them forward gen after gen and are no longer able to do so, I mean think of how many people love Squirtle or Bulbasaur and now they can't use them. --- 3DS FC Scott 0533-5781-3558 Pokemon: Pidgey, Woobat, Rufflet ...
