Im still not sure why this is as a big of a deal as it is.

I have almost all the Pokmon in my bank but I never transfer them to a new game or anything and dont understand why you would out of competitive play which is like 1% of the user base.

I thought mega evolution was fucking stupid. Z moves and all that shit was stupid. dynamax and gigamax sound and look stupid outside of raiding which may or may not be decent.

But dropping down the scope of Pokmon makes perfect sense.

I mean, my first playthrough on a generation, I always use all new Pokemon. But I do eventually transfer over some favorites so I can raise up a my favorites. So for me, while it wouldn't impact my actual story playthrough, I'm still miffed I'm completely locked out of most of my favorite Pokemon.

But really, I'm more appalled that their reasoning for why we couldn't get all the Pokemon was that they were too resource intensive when a) They already had future-proofed HD models for the existing 807 Pokemon and b) the game doesn't actually look all that impressive. Like I'd give their excuse a little more credit if the game was looking like BotW, but it is nowhere close to that.

And Game Freak can fuck right off with their "we are small company, please understand" bullshit. As can fans defending them by saying that Game Freak is used to making portable games so of course they are going to struggle making the game look good. Pokemon is the biggest media franchise in the history of mankind. If you don't have enough people. Hire more. If you don't have the expertise to do complex 3D modeling. Hire people who can. It's just kind of sad to me that after over 20 years, we are finally getting the first mainline Pokemon game on a home console and it looks like this.
