>>11896732Not this guy, but I'll provide my own opinion.
I won't lie: Hoennbabbies existed, and were fucking ANNOYING.
Let's see the period in which they existed: pre-BW2 leak era, along with the period of the first screenshots of BW2... After the leak of the game a few days before the official release, they disappeared, when we saw Hoenn wasn't included in BW2.
There has been very few or no case of hoennbabbies after that. No one believed that X/Y were going to be hoenn remakes, and THAT'S the period in which the hoennbabbie hate started: november-october, when they were no pokémon news. Everyone started bashing it, and a few months after, new game release! the Hoennbabbie hate fad started to dissipate, but now, in a slow news period, they start to bash... A nonexistent community.
Yes, hoennbabbies died. Not the ones that like hoenn, but the "MUH REMAKES!" fanboys that were shitposting all day. You only occasionally see a thread asking for what features would a potential hoenn remake have, and it's not meant to troll anyone, and the neo-hoennbabbies (AKA soft ones) are getting utterly bashed by the faults of their ancestors. That's what I think that guy meant to say.
