Serious question, is there some place where we can see the budget for each Pokemon games?

Wikipedia shows a budget of 50M for marketing for Red and Blue, but there doesn't seem to be any public data on the development costs or on any other game.

I thought that kind of stuff was supposed to be public information, at least for the stockholders or something.

Has it occurred to any of you that they didn't want to put Phoebe in SM? There's plenty of reasons to hate SM, but bitching about Phoebe not being in it is pretty retarded

Heh, it would've been a nice nod, but it isn't really a big deal.

I'm still upset that Bellossom was nowhere to be found though.

They probably realized Bellossom is Gen 2 and more popular than Vileplume, so they trashed the whole Oddish Line at the last second.

TIL Roxanne is supposed to be Chinese.
I always assumed french or something, I guess because of her name.

That being said, a pokemon game taking place in China would be sweet as fuck.

Because she isn't popular nor does she have any halfway decent reason to be there.

>>31915473
And Slurpuff is the mascot of the Malasada places and Swirlix is seen in the Megamarts, yet you don't see people complaining about it not being in the regional dex.

Tropius I can forgive. Just because it's a tropical mon doesn't mean it needs to be in every tropical region.
But Bellossom. It's literally based on Hawaiian hula dancers. What the fuck Game freak?

I wouldn't be surprised if it was this.

Seriously, of all the games she could have appeared, this is the one everyone would expect her to be in.

Some times, I think Game Freak only does the opposite of what we expect just to fucking spite us, for better or for worse.

Because Hoenn included poke Okinawa and Southern Japan, which are also subtropical to tropical. They probably just had that in mind for Phoebe, and Hawaiian print is generic and popular enough to be generically used by pretty much everywhere tropical world wide. They probably didn't think that far ahead, and they didn't really mean much by it. That and or she's too similar to Acerolla.
>>31915560
It was a pretty okay Hawaii region aside from a few missing mons and wanting more in terms of areas and pokemon.
