>>54563790>Murkrow was pushed to postgame because it's a dark typeWhy? How does that justify it? Why aren't you allowed to get Dark types (except Umbreon) until you beat the game? They're not overpowered, half of them are shitmons.
Is it because they're new? So is Steel, a much better Type, and you can get every Steel type before Kanto if you want to.
Wasn't Dark introduced to balance Psychic? Then why can't you get Dark types until postgame while you can still get Abra easily? How is it supposed to make sense?
>Slugma is in Kanto for plot reasons (Cinnabar eruption)Slugma is only found on Cycling Road. There's not a volcano there. There are several volcanic or mountainous areas in Johto they could have put them. Where does the lava in Clair's gym come from?
They're not even in Mt. Silver, which is LITERALLY Mt. Fuji, an active volcano.
