- A new Pokemon game but with just the original 150 pokemon, none of the 800,000 new pokemon


A game with only the first 150 pokemon will be very flawed.  As in gen 1, Psychics will be far too powerful, partly as a result of their being no dark pokemon.  There will be no pure ghost pokemon, only ghost/poison; no pure steels, only electric/steels.  Having mewtwo, but no mew will be just weird.  Bug pokemon will be even more shit than they currently are (which would in turn make psychics comparatively better).

Limiting the game to the first 251 would be better, or doing a gen 5 and only making a whole new rather balanced bunch available for most of the game.  Having only the 1st 150 would really unbalance the game competitively.


I don't remember any steel Pokemon in the first generation. Also, why not tweek and improve them, for example, allow Scyther to learn Pin Missile to make him useful for a change? Personally, I hate the bloated grindfest that Pokemon has become. As imperfect as they were, I greatly prefer the original Red and Blue.

even though they weren't in the original games (due to the type having not been invented), both Magnemite and Magneton are steel types.
