Fucking why? I'm not the biggest fan of Spearow but what the fuck is this Gen 8 Dex Cut bullshit? CATCHING THEM ALL is one of the best parts of these games, I don't want shit like Glaceon if that means you gotta cut Johto Pokemon as well. Why is this shit hailed as the definitive version of Pokemon Crystal when all 251 Pokemon aren't even in it? I just want something like those 251 patches but with those added QoL improvements the hack offers, and now I gotta start all over again with the same team and names and everything because autism as well.
