>>40892517i agree with your main points, however the main reason that people are getting upset is the fact that he's so braindead and uncaring for the fans, that he just mindlessly replied "Thanks" to someone saying they wanted to go on another adventure with their favorite pokemon, even though he knew that said pokemon did not make it into the game, the outer appearance of the issue seems stupid, but the underlying causes of peoples anger on it is the main problem.
Hope that didn't take too long to read, I'm very tired and just joined the discussion.
