Is it safe to assume that we won't get any non-Kanto Alolan Form pokemon now?

Makes me sad.

Why does GF keep catering to genwunners this anniversary year when the defining characteristic of genwunners is being spiteful grandpas who hate everything GF has done since 1998?

I really wonder how we're going to be able to get Alolan forms in games that don't take place in Alola. Bank-only (like the other three forms of Deerling) or some sort of postgame area 'where the atmosphere is close enough to Alola causing new forms of old Pokémon to appear'?

Yes. Makes sense to me.
Alola is near Kanto, so naturally some Kanto mons migrated over to Alola.

I'm sure they already had these designs ready long before Go was a thing.

But yes, only gen one Pokemon this time. Regional forms will be a thing from now on, I expect some on the gen IV remakes

By that logic, it's also near Johto. They're the same island split into two halves.

If it is just Kanto Pokémon, I'd hope that it would at least be more than just a handful of lines (and not even full lines, for that matter).

It's an amazing concept with what seems like great execution, so it would be a shame if they limited it to, what, less than two dozen Pokémon?

I hope Sinnoh forms add in a bunch of Fire types in that case. Mostly ones from Gen 2 and maybe some 5 and 6 mons would be ideal to get a good mix of remixed older mons and some newer mons that weren't in Sinnoh originally plus some Megas for Sinnoh mons. Make the evolutions of older Pokemon actually available in the fucking main story this time too. One of DP's biggest issues is that all the new Pokemon available before the game ends are awful and all the good ones are after you've beaten it and evolve in fucking retarded ways.

i wouldn't be surprised if it's just a marketing thing
imagine thinking that there's only gen 1 alola forms, then actually getting the game and running into an alolan buizel. it doesn't matter how you feel about buizel, you'd still shit your pants

Sorry to say Anon-Kun, but we already saw a regular Slowbro in one of the trailers
Only those in the first two tiers are likely to get an Alolan form

Also you know what would be nice trolling
If Vileplume gets an Alolan form but Bellosom doesn't

Possibly part of the reason this is the case is that types that either weren't prevalent or didn't exist during Generation I (Ghost, Dragon, Steel, Dark, Fairy, etc.) are getting some more representation. That doesn't mean I'm happy with the decision, but at least you can see what they're doing. (On that note, Generation II DID only add one new Ghost-type and one new Dragon-type.)

When they added fairy then went back and changed types anyway. I don't see why they couldn't do the same thing with dark and steel and give some other mons from gens other than gen 1 some cool new variants.
