babbies should only be introduced in future if they're also bringing a new adult pokemon.
Like I'd be okay with a babby Pinsir if it had a split evo that functioned differently to Pinsir.
otherwise they can fuck off

That depends entirely on which pokemon are getting evolutions. Hopefully shitmons that not even a mega could save get the brunt of em. Don't care about babies but they make good merch and, if given strictly to pokemon with no evolutions currently like Heracross at least means increasing Little Cup's roster. direct counterparts are fine by me so long as they're distinct competitively with different typings or abilities.

What I'd REALLY prefer is a pseudo-gen I remake except it's set in Ultra Space and everything is simultaneously a tenuous callback to Kanto and the original 151 yet also totally distinct. I mean, you could do stuff like Nihilego being a callback to tentacool visually but a callback to zubat thematically because they're the common cave encounter for instance. Both the same yet also totally different.

Id feel great.
If a line gets a baby/pre evo it needs to get a stat boost as well or else why even do it

Or if the (now) middle form gets an evo, ala Budew/Roserade.

baby forms are a waste of effort in my opinion. They would only exist to allow access to certain evolution lines earlier during gameplay but it isn't really necessary since you can always add things later on and none of the evolved mons are 'too good' once you get to level 30 anyways. cross-gen evos are cool and counterparts are probably hit or miss.

I would be extremely happy with this. With Gens 5, 6 and 7 I've really missed the connection to old Pokémon that Gen 2 and 4 had.

Imagine playing a game where the unevolved Route 1 trash cannot go below 500 BST, and the pseudos and legendaries cross 900 without breaking a sweat.

How would you feel about regional versions of previous gen starters and pseudo-legendaries taking up about 50% of the dex.

Nauseous.
How would you feel about 30% of the dex being composed of Pikachu in various mutated, outfit and merchwearing variations?
