starters are supposed to be standalone unique pokemon

having alternate forms from them ruins it's entire concept

Not to mention these three aren't native to Sinnoh/Hisui. It would make more sense for the Sinnoh trio to get alternate evolutions, but even that is unlikely.

How are fuckers too retarded to read the fucking setting info and just think game mechanics equate to lore?

No, they aren't. The Game explicitly tells you that the professor brought them from other regions.

They literally state that several regionals became the way they were because they were non-native pokemon that would not have survived otherwise - vulpix, sandshrew and rattata among them, with only a few (zigzagoon/exeggcute) that are thought to be the ‘original’ forms. It doesn’t make more or less sense.

Doesn't matter, a Cubone that's lived for years in Kanto can be imported to Alola and inexplicably evolve into its Alolan counterpart despite having none of the background or upbringing necessary.
Same with Pikachu, Mime Jr. and Exeggcute.

You're conflating gameplay with lore, like the retarded OP.

No, anon, you don't get it. They're gonna use these three to explain why this phenomenon happens in gameplay because they're too lazy to make evolutions work as expected based on heritage rather than "if it's in [region], it's ALWAYS the [regional form]".
