>>33256160The problem is NOT that this whole thing is a tie in, The thing most people is bitching about is that they're locking a potentially good evolution (compared to the other Lycanrocs at least) to just a specific Rockruff that's only available for around 1 and a half month, which may or may not be able to take full advantage from Tough Claws (depends if GF are generous enough to give it the elemental fangs or not at this point).
And to think it seemed GF learned why locking a specific pokemon family behind an event was a bad idea.
