It's so you have to rent storage on their cloud in order to carry your favorites into the future, rather than trade older mons directly onto new games and just keep them there for free.

Greninja and other fovorites have a higher chance of not being included because of >>40310773

There are more greninja fans to collect money from than there are maractus fans.

Top kek, anon. Greninja's gen came out 6 years ago and he's still more relevant than the current Gen's starters. Keep seething

Not him but I can’t see them bringing only Greninja back, it’s either all starters or just Kanto, the later sounds more likely at this point.
Incineroar’s amiibo is releasing on the same day as Sword and Shield do they might do something with these 2 and rest of Smashmons but I’m very doubtful

It wasn't to cut "shitmon"
It's just futureproofing so they don't have to add every single Pokemon to every new game in the future
A dex cut was going to happen inevitably, and if you didn't see it coming a long time ago you're a moron

I never said there wasn't other dress ups, you autist. You implied that having a Charizard Pikachu dress-up meant that Greninja wasn't important when coincidentally the same line also had a Greninja version. People said the Gen 7 starters would replace Greninja and that didn't happen either. Greninja is here to stay whether you like it or not.

You are delusional to think Greninja's time is up. As long as he retains public interest and moves merchandise, they'll keep using him to promote the franchise, and unfortunately for you, he does both of those things still. It's the same reason we still get Charizard merch even nowadays.

Is there any other Pokemon in existence that has been named the best of its Gen even before any appearances in any sort of media or without in-game focus given to it? That's pretty much the definition of Organic popularity.

They don't normally show many previous starters unless they have something to do with a specific trainer, probably so the current starters aren't thrown aside.

>cut shitmon
Fuck no, that's not what it's for and even if it was, they'd bring them back in later gens on and off anyway.
The point of the cull is to start futureproofing further by avoiding having to include the data of 1000+ Pokemon in every game for the minority with living dexes, while using Home as a way to tie them all together in one """game""".

Considering they're nowhere near the max capacity of the cartridges, recycle 99% of the animations and models (meshes), and don't really add that many new Pokemon per gen anyway, it's a flimsy excuse, but that's still their word and they're sticking to it for now.
I'm still waiting on the room-temp IQ guys shrieking about Stantler to burst their aneurysms and move on to Sigilyph if Stantler ever gets confirmed.
