Then why not make Slowbro/Slowking, Vileplume/Bellossom, Gardevoir/Gallade, etc. regional variants that take up the same spot in the Pokedex using that logic?

Because they were made before regional variants were a thing? It's the same reason the Nidoran lines are still separate after gender differences became a thing; it's too late to change them now.

It makes complete sense. What seems to be the problem, autist-kun?

You must be unaware of the logistical NIGHTMARE making those changes would cause. If you've ever thought fans were unhinged NOW, just imagine what it'd be like if GF ever did what you're suggesting.

? It is an alternative evolution. If you have Exeggcute it can evolve into either the regular one or the alolan one.

No association between dragons and dragonflies in Japanese, while Dracaena is an international name.

it basically is an alternate evolution, but instead of using a different stone it's use a stone in a different region

They're not regional variants though, As long as you've a king's rock or dawn stone, you can get the split-branch evo, regardless of region, while you can ONLY get A_Exeggutor in Alola, due to the climate.

Eh, they're basically half a brachiosaur. Also a four times ice weakness is fitting for a tropical palm.

They aren't related to dragons at all, everybody crying about how Flygon should be a dragon is dumb as hell.

It is a palm tree but the idea of it being a dragon could have come from the dragon tree
Mega Ampharos being a dragon (despite being a sheep) is due to a pun on its Japanese name

>Alola is the best environment for this Pokémon. Local people take pride in its appearance, saying this is how Exeggutor ought to look.
>As it grew taller and taller, it outgrew its reliance on psychic powers, while within it awakened the power of the sleeping dragon.
>The strong sunlight of the Alola region has awakened the power hidden within Exeggcute. This is the result.
>Blazing sunlight has brought out the true form and powers of this Pokémon.

It's as simple as "Alola is a more suitable environment for it, so it grows tall enough to not need psychic powers anymore and gets dragon powers instead"
