What Gen 1 Pokemon could you not get in Gen 3 until FR/LG? What about Gen 2 Pokemon? I'm just wondering out loud, but I wonder if the decision to not allow transfer from 1+2 had to do with wanting people to buy the remakes so they could get all the missing mons that weren't in RSE. I don't have any data on hand to really build or discredit this.
