>>37576643I don't know what's more retarded, that you presented two pairs of redundant points
as if they were four separate arguments, or that you still think "new Pokemon = new gen" when USUM happened.
>lgpe are officially classified as core games and not spinoffs (no matter how much you whiny butthurt manbabbies want to claim otherwise), meaning meltan and melmetal's generation status is tied to lgpe and not the 2019 game (or a "cell phone game", not sure why you mentioned an actual spinoff when it's not even relevant to the question anyway)>lgpe are remakes of previous games, rather than a completely new adventure in a new region like LITERALLY every single other game that began a new generation (this is objectively speaking the only criteria common to ALL new-gen games)>new pokemon = new gen isn't even a fucking argument anymore when the last game not only had new pokemon (and you seem to agree it wasn't a new gen since you insist lgpe are gen 8 and not gen 9) but had MORE new pokemon than lgpe doI can't wait for Meltan and Melmetal to be grouped with the gen 7 Pokemon in the Bank Pokedex so you retards can do some more mental gymnastics to insist that the people who make the games are wrong about their own product just like you're already doing when you call LGPE spinoffs. Also, if we're actually using your criteria for what makes a new gen, then:
>gs are gen 1 because they're not exclusive to a new system>bw/bw2 are gen 4 because they're not exclusive to a new system>which makes xy/oras gen 5, but so are sm because they're not exclusive to a new system>if new system exclusivity and new pokemon are both required for a new gen, usum are also gen 5, but if new pokemon alone are sufficient, they're gen 6>ergo lgpe are either gen 6 or 7, not 8checkm8 faget
