>>34818018Previously new Pokemon was a marker that told you a game was a new generation. If it had a new Pokemon, then it was a new generation. Period. Until gen 7, that is.
That doesn't mean the "meaning of a generation" is new pokemon. If you believe the two claims are equivalent, then you fail at logic. It just means every single game that had new pokemon was also a new generation game, thus if a game had new pokemon, you could also conclude it was a new generation.
That was the case when he said it, but it no longer is
