>>46190382>>46191440All soulful references that don't namedrop Kanto in any way, shape, or form.
Now explain to me why having an arbitrarily related member of the Oak family come up in Alola out of nowhere, to talk about the differences a regional gimmick that only affects Kanto Pokemon for whatever reason is necessary.
Same with Galar. They mention Kantonians this, Kantonians that, or Kantonians watch X on the TV! Yet Kalos, a region that's stated to be just nearby by Swimmers in Route 9, gets that one reference and that's it.
Sure, shit on XY. But the references it made weren't offensive in the least and it gave equal or more love to Hoenn and other regions. They probably realized that they were TOO subtle with the Kanto-pandering in Kalos which is why they decided to up the ante by a hundred for Alola and Galar.
