>>43111607Obviously a lot of Unova pokemon are conceptually tied into Kanto pokemon but who gives a fuck? When you see a regional fishmon is the first thing that pops into your head "wow, what a Goldeen/Magikarp rip off!" Are Lumineon, Barraskewda, and literally every other fucking fish also a Kanto ripoff? Is it that bad to have another 3-stage fighting line or another 3-stage rock line? The fuck's your point?
