>>58272640Gonna clarify further. Let's say you're playing Gold in Japanese. That means no Jigglypuff on Route 46, it only appears in Kanto, and no breeding for Igglybuff. No egg Slugma, no Ice Path Sneasel, no Safari Zone, no Odd Egg, no trade evolutions, no other starters, no opposite version exclusives, no Mystery Gift, no Celebi event, no glitches. You're locked down.
Before the post-game, that number has gone up to 161. That number becomes 199 after the post-game, and 232 if you allow for trading with the opposite version. Add in a single Gen I game, and it becomes 249.
Each of these numbers is greater than 151.
