>The number of Pokemon hasn’t really been a bottleneck in the past, but with the franchise now moving to the Nintendo Switch, Masuda says Game Freak is using higher fidelity graphics and higher quality animations, which obviously require more resources.
>It isn’t just going to be all-new Pokemon in the Galar region Pokedex; there’s still going to be a lot of favorites that fans will be able to bring over that they’ve adventured with previously.
>But yeah, it was pretty much just balancing and getting this optimal selection of Pokemon for the adventure we wanted to provide.
>Masuda about the process of choosing which Pokemon would be included in the Galar Pokedex, and though he didn’t dive into many specifics, he did say that Game Freak tried to pick Pokemon that would “make sense in the region,” while also trying to make sure that the collection of selected types was balanced.
Blancing, popularity, hardware limitations, "sense in the region", What was the real reason?
