I'm fine with Pokemon I'm apathetic towards. One's I have no strong feeling. The issue is when that apathy becomes dislike. When a design hits too many sour notes. You can cry about 'but everybody likes different things" all you want but those designs not only did not interest me, but they repulsed me.
You can try and play the numbers game with that, spreading your net far enough that you catch enough people, but the other aspect of that is making sure there's enough fucking content to make the game worth buying for those people you want to grab.
Only an idiot would buy a game for ONE Pokemon and the issue with Kalos and Aloha is that they aren't casting a big enough net so that the more misses I get with those generations, the less I feel like paying full price.
