>>54252229But they're not wrong. Some of those forms could be used in LGPE, so it directly did exactly what he was saying. And the same could be said for both the regionals from Kanto they've added since PLUS how they've approached regionals for Gen 2
>Kanto/Johto have many mono-Fighting types with middling stats -- Tauros (3 forms), Farfetch'd, Sneasel, Zapdos>Still lacking Dark types and variety among them -- Qwilfish, Meowth (original anon missed this one), Moltres>Little variety with Grass types as most are part Poison -- Voltorb (also helps with Electric being mostly monotypes), Toedscool (not a regional but wtf not)>Lack of mono-Ghost or Ghost in general -- Corsola, Typhlosion >Lack of Ice types -- Mime>Not many Fairies in original Kanto dex -- Rapidash, Mime, Weezing>Lack of mono-Steel -- Meowth>Low Psychic variety -- Slowpoke, Articuno>Low Fire variety -- Growlithe, Typhlosion The evolutions play into this too
>Ursaluna adds another 3 stage Normal line>Wyrdeer, Farigiraf, Dudunsparce add more evolved Normals with decent stats in general>Annihilape fixes lack of Ghost and lack of Fighting varietyThis is less compelling tho when you remember LGPE and FRLG didn't allow the new evolutions either at all or until well after you finished the game. HGSS included a few into the reboot but mostly held them off as well. Also, Wooper is the only regional I can't think of addressing some "missing hole" in the original dex
