Because it's always been a key selling point of the franchise. It was originally its motto, and for almost 20 years, every game always made it a big deal. Being able to have every Pokémon was always a main feature of every Pokémon game and to have it removed rightfully turns off most fans. If you're a newcomer, it's only natural you wouldn't understand this, but even then, the idea that it's "overwhelming" to have that many Pokémon in a game is completely dumb-founded. There's nothing overwhelming about it, because, for one, the rosters you can actually obtain in-game without trading have always been limited, and for another... what's the difference? If you don't care about getting them all, just get the ones you like and carry on. It makes no difference in your game if there's "too many" Pokémon. Personally, there's a lot more I hate about Pokémon nowadays than the national Pokédex fiasco. If these games were to feature all the Pokémon, I would've inevitably been turned off by the Dynamax, Galarian forms, and the dev's laziness which is apparent in everything in the games. Not having the national dex was just a way to ensure that I was turned off before I could get hyped. In that sense, I'm thankful for that announcement. But really, Pokémon hasn't been good since 2013. |
Well I hope you and the people who hate the changes don't buy it then. Its the only way to make them listen. Im not sure its the developers being lazy though. I think they want to release games more often. Cant really do that if they spend years on each game.
