I'm just a casual pokeman fan, but this does make some sense. Balancing/animating it all out for every game does seem like a lot of work. I would rather have them working on the new game itself, then spending lots of time bringing in all old versions.
In the wilderness we go alone with our new knowledge and strength.

That's the thing though - they aren't making any new models or animations so there's very little work to actually be done. All older Pokemon are the exact same as they were back in XY in 2013. No changes whatsoever. In S/M, they all even had walking models/animations for the overworld, just never got used. There are very no new assets to be created for older mon, cutting them makes absolutely no sense. |

Pokemon is the biggest franchise in the world. It generates more money than some small countries, and I'm not going to give them a pass I would give a small indie studio. It's not the 90s anymore, if they wanted to they could make a Pokemon game as GTA V, but they'd rather give and take features every gen, and now it seems that it will happen to the pokemon themselves as well. And if it was just a matter of time, why not just wait an extra year, or focus on Sword/Shield instead of Let's Go? Why make US/UM immediately after Sun/Moon? Even recycling content from those games, that had to be time consuming. |
Ah I see. Well im not a big Pokemon fan (Only played 3 Mainline pokemon games +Lets Go) sooo it probably didnt and wont bother me. But it does suck for majority of the people.
Pocky Lover Boy!
meh I personally don't care that it doesn't have all 800 pokemon. Still excited for the game
I don't care. I play for the new Pokemon, region, and story.
Not trying to take away from this...but didn't Sun and Moon also technically only have a Regional Pokedex? I might be off base here, obviously it lets you bring any Pokemon into the game, but I remember thinking my Pokedex wasn't updating for some reason when I brought a Charizard into my file, and someone at the time told me that the National Dex was in Pokebank now. If that was true, maybe the idea is that cross-game collection is limited to Bank (or whatever the new version of Bank is), and collecting in the games themselves is now limited to the Regional dexes.
If that's true...still annoying for people that like to bring their teams across games, but I can understand the idea a little more.

This is just a part of a bigger trend of GF cutting features with no good reason. It's absolutely the worst of them, but here is everything else in list form:

2011:

2014:
2016:
2018:

Everything they said about LGE/LGP not effecting the main series, and SW/SH being mainline hardcore fan focused games is complete bullshit. Let's Go was nothing more than a test to see how the market would react to a stripped down Pokemon game and it sold 10m+. They now know they can put as little effort as possible, and not even have it be their main focus, but still it will sell bonkers. I can't wait to see what else got cut.
Lol i must be one of hte few people who don't transfer their pokemon. I leave them int he game i caught them.
Might be time to get myself into the latest trends and see how all this works lol
By the way, I don't want to ask for something too amazing, or be too greedy...
But still no save files management? I think it was still like this with SM (could be wrong), but are we still at the Game Boy era when you little brother could delete your entire game because he wanted to play his own game?

I think it's safe to assume there'll be different save files for different accounts. Edit: then again I would've said the same about the National Pokédex if you asked me a couple days ago. |
Yeah, surely. Is it like that with Let's go?
But even if it's like this, it's pretty poor. If you want to start the game again to try things differently, or you want to do something again, you can't load a previous game or create another save without creating an entire different account?
