sub 100 new Pokemon was justifiable when they brought back a majority of the previous gens Pokemon. it's not justifiable when they only bring in 400.

I actually have a feeling this is at least part of the case. I swear I remember reading an interview from years ago that they're intimidated by the design of the 1000th pokemon. Also laziness.

They're scared to reach the number 1000.
Akso with 81 new pokemon in gen 8, excluding galarian forms, it brought national pokedex to 890.

I would be so fucking pissed if they went to 980 next gen. It's the perfect opportunity to do a dex of 120 and have some stupid special legendary pokemon for number 1000

Literally the same reason we got mega evos and alolan forms.

Gen 5 showed adding in too many new Pokes turns off a lot of people.

The only way we're getting a lot of Pokes nowadays is alternate forms which links the designs to already recognizable Pokemon. Which is why most of them have been for the first gen. It's a pretty clear design choice...

this, along with their inability to keep up anymore

1000 is too many. not because GF is lazy. because they're inept. remember - they got lucky with red and green. pokémon was never meant to blow up the way it did

This, it's one of the highest grossing franchises in the entire history of the world and they still develop the mainline games that are supposed to represent it as moderate scale projects for a handheld and barely pump any budget in them.
It's jarring seeing ambitious and expansive games like Astral Chain, DQ11 and Xenoblade, which are all much more niche games with way lower expected sales, being released on the same console.

Have you seen the quality in these designs? Now imagine double the amount of designs with half the quality. That's why.

This is what will happen

Gamefreak will take the heat for all the dex cuts, soon the normies will find out and complain

This will prompt Gamefreak to bring back all of the previous gen Pokemon to Gen 9

The catch is that Gen 9 Pokemon will only be a few dozen, even way less than Kalos and Alola

you don't understand reality at all. the games and gamefreak are fine. eventually we'll be able to transfer everything over. the statement that made people think this wasnt going to happen was entirely misunderstood. wait until Home just like we had to wait for bank. it's not complicated or deep, and will not effect the sales literally regardless of whether or not I'm correct about this.

There will never be a pokemon 1000. There will never be a canon national dex again. I will be surprised if the regional dex numbers are specifically mixed up just to spite people still clinging to the concept and get them to fuck off from the more easily fleeced parts of their consumerbase.

Two things.
One, Galarian forms and Gigantamax monsters take up some of the budget, for sure.

Two, I didn't take an exact count, but weirdly large number of mons this gen either have alt forms, like Morpeko, or change form dynamically mid-battle, like Eisecue. They clearly doubled down on the quality>Quantity axiom this gen
