>>53269734>>53270010>>53263502Yeah its pretty interesting, any Pokémon that uses Transform will keep their original palette, it doesn't make sense lore-wise but I thought it was cool.
>>53265139>>53265625The "Shitmon" excuse rubs me the wrong way especially since like you said they could have buffed. They even bought them back anyway making that excuse pointless.
>>53268647>>53269171I agree that Cherrygrove is a Nothing town that probably could be removed, but I think it helps ease the player into the Pokemon world.
>>53268580>>53268733Tajiri mentioned in an interview that Kanto being urbanized was inspired by how the forests he used lived near and used to find bugs in were cut down to make room for urban expansion. I'm almost certain the Viridian being reduced was an intentional nod to that.
>>53270104I have mixed feeling about Kanto being expanded in HGSS, I respect Game Freak for putting the effort making using the technological advancements to do things that the originals couldn't. but I never had a problem with Kanto being reduced in the first place since most of the stuff removed had understandable reasons, also putting this much in Kanto added to the whole "Johto is just West Kanto" meme and lets retards rewrite history and think the only reason people liked GSC was the ability to go to Kanto when everyone just saw Kanto as a fun surprise postgame bonus.
