Why aren't people more disappointed that Legends wasn't the historical series?

Because the vast majority of humanity are not autistic patternniggers like (You). They introduced the imprint as a new direction for Pokémon, retaining the same slavish copy/paste aspects of their series with it clearly wasn't viable (there's also the fact they set a hard date for the creation of Poké Balls to a few years before L: A, so had locked themselves into being unable to tackle anything older in date due to not having the justification of having them exist in the world, unless set around the time of L: A).

It's literally called "Legends". If they weren't going to go with historical themes they could have called it anything like Pokemon Stories, Gaiden or Adventures instead of baiting and switching.

You could have the game take place in Kalos (like ZA is) at the same time. A historical Legends for each region would have been tremendous.

>It's literally called "Legends"
The story literally revolves around AZ, who was a king thousands of years ago. Also 'legend' can mean famous or notorious, it doesn't inherently mean something from the past
>they could have called it anything like Pokemon Stories, Gaiden or Adventures
Pokemon Adventures is already the name of the manga, anon. And Gaiden would've gotten casuals confused about what it is

He was in XY and legendaries are generally old.
>Also 'legend' can mean famous or notorious
For something they did in the past.

Pokemon Stories then.

PLA takes place in the past of the main games, but it deals with legends from things further in the past.

Also, no reason to be mad, a future legends game might take place in the past.
