Surely Gamefreak isn't completely daft to not realise this, so they're probably hoping the players gained from such hardcore gen 1 pandering well outweighs those lost. Such a highly unlikely and unnecessary gamble, but again, if that's true. We've had plenty of leaks that got stuff right but other stuff wrong before. We can only hope this is another one of those. |
Could be dead wrong about this, but I'm still 95% certain this isn't a gen 8 game and that's still on the way. I think this exists simply because Nintendo wasn't content to wait 3 years into the Switch's lifecycle for Pokemon and neither were fans. Having only the original 151 in this would make sense if these game are just to tide fans over until the gen 8 games are ready since it requires far less time and resources to do. So don't expect next gen Pokemon from this and you won't be so disappointed. We'll get that when it's ready, not some rush job.
