>>53314877Heres the thing, if they were just honest and said the dex cut was needed to ensure the game came out on time I don't think people would've gotten that mad about it. Game Freak kept backpedaling and trying to make it seem like not only was the dex cut a good thing but beneficial to the overall experience in some fucked up "less content is a good thing" mindset. Only for them to pretty much bring back most of the cut Pokemon anyways through the expansion packs, proving it was entirely due to development and if SWSH wasn't rushed to stores there wouldn't be a dex cut in the first place.
