>>37398606>the ultimate high-stakes story (you literally cannot get any more severe than destroying the universe)>lore creep legendaries (you have the gods of reality)Makes sense after the planet story. Also, not game play so it isn't really fucking anything up.
>first real example of KANTOOOOO PANDERING (the unnecessary kanto evolutions, oak appearing in DPP for no reason, the actual existence of HGSS where gamefreak cared more about kanto than the actual main region of johto)Old evolutions are a good thing for game play and not all of them were for Kanto, retard. In fact, the only ones you could get in the Sinnoh Dex itself in D/P are more correctly all labeled as Johto evolutions save one. That one being Munchlax.
The rest were all Johto or in part Johto:
>Mime Jr. (demo)>Happiny (Blissey)>Leafeon (demo)>Weavile (Sneasel)>Mismagius (Misdreavus and randomly based on the demo Murkrow instead as it was the one with a witch's hat)>Honchkrow (Murkrow)>Bonsly (Sudowoodo)>Ambipom (Aipom)A large portion of the original northeast Gen 2 map became Sinnoh (pic related) so they also included many of the beta mons and theme in new babies and evolutions primarily to Johto Pokémon or those related to it, you moron.
Others being:
>Magmortar (Magby)>Electivire (Elekid)>Tangrowth (beta Gen 2)>Lickilicky (beta Gen 2)Not to mention almost every Pokémon referenced in the demo was present in Sinnoh.
>Baby Goldeen > Goldeen and Seaking in the Sinnoh Dex.>Crobat added > Crobat line in the Sinnoh Dex.>Qwilfish Evolution retconned to Whiscash > Whiscash line is in the Sinnoh Dex.You're just an idiot. Gen 4 was full circle for Masuda and he should have stepped down then before he started ruining it next Gen.
And no, I didn't start playing then so >inb4 Sinnofetus bullshit. I've played since Gen 1 released and for most of that it was 8+ hours a day. I've played about 7 years of hours the last 20 years.
