>>45127212>I unironically liked the dex cut and was like "good riddance" when I learned cancer like the Tapus, Genies, Chansey/Blissey and Garchomp weren't in the base games along with other old, boring faces.How small minded of you, being happy to see others having their favorites ripped away entirely just to satisfy your own distaste for them. There were better ways to balance these Pokemon rather than cutting them. Like nerfing them, or buffing older Pokemon, or just straight up banning them from battle spot. Or if you play Smogon, play lower tiers since you seem to be complaining about OU staples.
>It also forced me to build my team differentlyWhy didn't you do this before dex cuts? Because you only play meta?
>I didn't have to deal with the hassle of obtaining the almost 900 pokemon that exist to complete my dex.And that necessitated cutting Pokemon how? Sun and Moon accomplished this without cutting any Pokemon.
