Nigga, you being salty over nothing isn't a valid complaint.

Think about it, people complained about a machamp just standing around. If that isn't an indication "gen one pandering" isn't just some knee-jerk /vp/ bitches about everything session I don't know what is.

But it is when they all but abandon every other generation. There are plenty of non-gen 1 Pokémon that would have made for good Alolan forms but they just ignored all of them because they didn't come out in Red and Green

It is.
In gen 6 some areas and plot points are just copies of gen 1.
In gen 7 Kanto mons are the majority of the regional pokedex

It is faggot. A new pokemon gen must be new, not a rehash of gen 1.

Hell, even XY with all its pandering gave megas to other gens.

No, but criticizing the fact that older Pokemon are taking precedence over the new ones this should be the main point of the games themselves is

Most likely just exaggerating. It's still terrible that Alolan forms are exclusive to gen 1 though, they could've had a really huge thing going there.

It's hilarious, too, since genwunners are complaining that the designs are ruined, anyway.

Who was GF trying to please by doing that, anyway?

I don't know, but I thought the forms were a way of celebrating 20 years of Pokemon by reimagining the designs of Pokemon from each generation, but then I got confused as to what they were trying to accomplish when it became evident it was exclusive to gen 1.

There are 81 Kanto Pokemon in Alola, while other gens have around 20-30 Pokemon.

No, it's actually true. Go ahead and count them. There are 108 Kanto pokemon in the Alola dex and 88 Alolan pokemon.

They mentioned they used only gen 1 Pokemon because they were the oldest.

So basically 'we redesigned these because they looked like outdated shit'

I thought they were way more interesting than megas so it's a shame it's so limited. If gen 7 gets anymore games I hope the other gens get the same treatment.

It's like you don't think they're trying to make money.

That's not a majority if you include all of the mons in the regional dex.

When you count Alola Forms as new Pokémon, the native Pokémon outnumber the plain Kanto Pokémon. Also, there are 11 Pokémon-exclusive Z-Moves, and all 4 revealed so far belong to either Kanto or Alolan Form Pokémon.

Ive never taken genwun pandering complaints very seriously before: I quite liked all of the genwun bullshit thrown into X and Y and I've always been a Kantofag at heart

With that being said, I do think they finally went too far when they decided only Kanto Pokemon would get Alolan forms. There's no good reason why Alola couldn't have cool regional variants of Johto or Hoenn Pokemon too

The problem isn't really that they're only gen 1, the problem is that they're gen 1 and only 10 fucking lines.

Megas were a new thing yet XY gave us 30 megas out of the bat.

I know it's not fair to compare entire lines to single species considering the number is similar, but still.

Why wouldn't you? They play like entirely new Pokémon and can't change form.

You're not some faggot who counts Zelda and Sheik as the same character in Smash because muh slots, are you?

No new numbers. No new name. Designs are slightly altered rehashes.
