>>28608101Reboot is necessary. The company just started to do disgusting hackish shit to get new pokemon stuff out of their limited code, because they have nowhere to place them.
We're starting to go back to gen II style "If this number and this number are divisible by six and the moon has aligned with jupiter, then this pokemon has this other thing which we can't actually write down in it's code.". People severely need to take off their nostalgia goggles and shit and embrace change.
If it weren't for gen III, we wouldn't have abilities, the special attack stat or gender separate from IVs. Hell, we most likely would not have gotten the special/physical split ever. What they did was nessesary and helped the franchise grow. It is nessesary once more, and I truly hope they take the step forward.
If anything, whatever black magic they are doing to get pokemon from gen I to gen VII can be modified to work on the other gens once they properly reboot. That way, faggots averse to change can stick their tongues up their ass and let the rest of us enjoy a much improved game.
