This is a good time to remember not to believe everything you read on the internet especially when it includes the words "rumour" and "pokemon".

Also there is nothing to say that this extends to post game and pokemon bank. Even if there is Pokemon Go integration, what are you going to do with all your gen 2, 3 + alolan form mons?

I can say with absolute certainty that they won't scrap pokemon 152-807 in this game.

Like I said we have to hope it's not true. If it were a random nobody I'd not give this a second thought, but it comes from the guy who leaked Let's Go in the first place.

Nothing until the gen 8 games lel.

In addition to gen 1 pandering, it would also require less work, so unfortunately I can't say with confidence that there's no way Gamefreak would do this.

I just don't see it. Sometimes I feel like people don't give Gamefreak enough credit and for some reason think they will only ever give the lowest of the low. I mean their is no evidence they'd do this, even in FRLG had the rest of the pokemon in the game and catch able in the post game. Plus not to mention they already have all the models and their is a new gen 7 pokemon that was only just revealed and is being released this year. It would also completely nullify the Pokemon Bank service which was literally made as future proof method of transferring of later games/hardware to new games/hardware.

At most all I see is the 151 pokemon + their later added evolution lines with the rest of the pokemon being in the most game/via pokemon bank.
