>>33162435My point is that kanto/gen 1 already gets a lot fanservice in the main games, sometimes being blatantly shoehorned such as with the postgame legendary birds in XY.
Here a few examples:
SM
* All alola forms being gen 1 pokemon
* Red and blue appering at the battle tree
* A lot of kanto pokemon getting exclusive z moves (Snorelax, mew, pikachu x2, raichu, eevee)
* Nugget bridge
* A lot of references to kanto within the game (Samson oak,
lillie going to kanto at the end, the protag being from kanto)
XY
* The snorelax on the bridge
* The 2nd kanto starters /w megas
* Charizard and mewtwo getting 2 megas
* Mewtwo post-game
* Romeing legendary birds post-game
* Most of the megas were given to gen 1 pokemon
* Santalune Forest being a remake of the Viridian Forest
While some of these may be nitpicks, kanto still gets quite a lot of fanservice, and more so than other regions.
