Why is catching Mythicals yourself not a thing anymore?

Because GF realized that distribution through events keeps a forced interest in their games.

There's acutally no difference to that, since you need Event items for it anyway.

But you still needed events to unlock them

Because Gamefreak is a business that tries to maximize profit. Time is money and so putting more time into developing their games for a not-so-substantial payoff is wasteful. Same deal with Battle Frontier and large amounts of postgame content. It's a shame but that's how the cookie crumbles.

Because the Azure Flute was "too confusing."
Even though Regigigas in ORAS and its abstract requirements exist.

Reminds me of the Lv. 100 Event Regigigas in Platinum required to get all three Regis in order to get a Lv. 1 Regigias

It's because people glitched their way to Darkrai and Shaymin back when D/P launched. I still have no fucking clue why they didn't distribute the Azure Flute.

because that requires gamefreak programming new events, new areas, or both

just giving you a pokemon with 4 lines of dialogue fits with them stripping away all the nuance while still selling what is technically a game

I know they said that, but it's obviously bullshit. I'm just wondering what the real reason is. Hell, they made it so you had to catch Victini and Zoroark after getting their events.

Masuda has outright said it's because having events be items that will allow you to access an area and catch a mythical instead of being the mythical itself just leads to dumb kids not figuring out what the item they just got is used for, and thus not getting anything out of the event.

Because they believe that it makes Pokemon less mysterious if you can catch them yourself for some reason.
The reason why they never gave out the flute to catch Arceus was because they thought it would be weird for a little kid to be able to catch the literal Pokemon god so it obviously would be much better to just let them pirate him from a torrent site.

Game Freak refused to distribute many of the items at large events and then got butthurt when people hacked to get them.
