>Not that this is relevant It is, it entirely destroys one of your points. Just because it proves you wrong doesn't mean its irrelevant.
>Yes. Which is still possible in SS. If you have a clefairy from gen 3, it is still playable in gen 8.But not a Spearow.
>Not necessarily.Yes.

>But here's the thing:no one really does care about it.Nah, they bothered to make an announcement at e3, make an app to "make up" for that AND people started massively complaining about it. Because no one cares.
>No one cared that SM had 700+ transferable mons otherwise Yes, no one minded SM did the exact thing they wanted. You complain when things go your way?

The fact that people still complain about no compatibility between Gen 2 and Gen 3?
The fact GF themselves went out of their way to ensure mons are transferable up to this point and considered necesary to announce ahead of time that it wont be the case anymore?
The fact that the franchise is about collecting and people who follow it collect?
The fact that the term "living dex" was even a thing in the fanbase?
