>>51079898>When the 3ds games still had active users anyone could just put a Graveler or whatever on GTS and get any hatchable foreign Pokémon he wants.Yeah, that's true, and?
> It seems kind of ironic to use Autist as an insult but be too stubborn to use traded Pokémon.Huh? Where did I say you shouldn't trade? Maybe you misunderstood what I said? I'll try again: it's important the number of Pokémon you can catch in the game itself (the regional Pokédex) because that means having a Pokémon world more diverse, more "alive". You'll meet different Pokémon during your journey, the NPC will have teams composed by various Pokémon, not always the same. That is way more important than having a national dex.
>What's wrong with wanting to improve our own personal enjoyment of the games.Being forced to keep more than 1000 Pokémon (counting alternative forms) in every game, balancing and animating them (especially when they are really shitty in both those things) is not a good thing. If the games are a shit show now, imagine how bad they would be with all the Pokémon in.
