That's as lame as what they're doing with John Hurt in Doctor Who.

It might make for a decent movie plot. Arceus didn't have the eighteenth plate during the whole Damos incident.

this x100

even if they don't decide to do the above, it's not hard to work around. Set a flag for gen 5 pokes so their HP gets calculated the old way while gen 6 pokes get a new algorithm that includes fairy. Simple.

because they'll have to change the equation to take an extra type into account, and if they allow transferring, there will be incompatible equations.

Pokémon really should just not bother trying to explain new features. Remember when Elm had to explaining the new breeding feature and how he has never seen a pokemon egg before and pokemon breeding has been an unsolved mystery? Do you really want more of that?

You guys seem to forgot that it is a game for kids. They don't have to explain shit. If this was a debate over Elder Scrolls lore or something like that then I could somewhat understand but Pokemon is the same copy&paste series that add features when they feel they are needed.

If they wanted to they could have triple type Pokemon in the 6th gen and screw everything over for competitive battling and you either can laugh at those who care or cry yourself to sleep that night. The only way to make progress is to take risks and actually change things up.

It's not like Arceus was carrying them with him or something.

there would just be a new plate, you dingus.

What I'm more curious about is how they'll handle Hidden Power. Either Fairy will be the one type that hidden power can't do, or they'll have to readjust the way HP type is calculated to fit Fairy in, meaning that'd you get some unintended consequences like a pokemon that used to have HP ice is now using HP steel.

Awful Resolution - Pokemon are non-transferrable to Gen VI, making Fairy-typed HP a non-issue
Bad Resolution - Fairy type HP is slapped in, ruining other HP.
Retarded but plausible because of fucking GF - A new move called "Fairy Power" is added, is basically HP but Fairy type only, IVs only determine its power.
Best Resolution - IVs are no longer used to determine HP. There are in-game locations/NPCs which alter HP elements and power.

Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, and Arceus himself reside in dimensions other than the pokemon world.

Fairies are just magical fru fru creatures.

Arceus created dragons to protect the universe and fairies are immune to dragon type attacks so he hid the plate and the type in a void dimension to maintain balance.
