>>39544853>absence is not beneficial in any wayYeah it is. It makes a more complete and well rounded meta. Just piling on shit because some autist will get upset if it's gone isn't good game design.
Games have a limited amount of resources and time, and keeping in redundant mons takes both time and resources.
>m-modelsYeah they have future proof, models no one is arguing that, but it still takes time to implement every single mon in and there is literally no reason to, because some are shitmon that serve zero purpose and others just don't fit in thematically(box legends and starters).
>b-but I wanna use my broSo what? You can't in this game, if you wanna use your bro, play one that has it, it's not in this game and you can't use it, just like how you can't visit kantooooo.
If they spend less time adding in a shit ton of mons each game, they can spend more time improving the pokemon formula, which has been stagnant for fucking ages, and maybe actually make games that meet the standards of modern rpgs(although this is pretty unlikely, cuz gamefreak, the franchise should be given to someone else).
Seriously though, pokemon as a franchise is years behind everyone else. It's fucking 2019 and they only just figured out how to implement camera controls
