>>57041608Way to ignore the in-universe lore dude. The meta is because they cut the dex as 3D development is more difficult than you imagine (or else you'd be shitting out piss-easy-to-make 3D games and earning instead of malding) and they ultimately make games for children as their primary focus market and have done for the last almost 29 years so weren't going to add 700-odd just to sate some sperg online. At this stage, you're the autistic adult retard, sperging out and honestly not understanding why Game Freak don't do what you want, when as a teen and older adult for the life of this game series, I can tell you this has always been the case. "You older and still play? Cool, we don't care, there's kids to brainwash, keep buying or don't". Thankfully I grew up without the internet, so wasn't poxed to fuck by it growing up and never lost the spark of joy inside that let me look beyond the presented skin to buy into the premise. Sperg away, not going to change my opinion on anything, if anything, just gonna make me go and make a batch of popcorn to watch your episode.
