An older game with significantly inferior graphics had more Pokemon??? No ****. It was easier and cost far less to do "more" back before HD. Modern development costs are extremely high, which is why most games have cut backs. Like how GT reused car models.  And we aren't getting less.  We are getting a Pokemon with plenty of Pokemon, in HD with surround sound.  

At the end of the day the game has 400 older Pokemon plus 95 new pokemon, for a total of 495....  I cannot understand how anybody looks at close to 500 pokemon and comes to the conclusion that isn't enough.  Other than people like to itch, especially gamers.  Look if the game turns out really bad, than itch away.  But man, shouldn't we wait to play the actual finished product before making such strong (emotional) claims?  

But more to the point.  My pet peeve is people who clearly don't like a product but yet spend all day obsessing about it.  The pokemon hating crew talks more pokemon than those who are legitimately interested.  It reminds me of how every Star Wars thread is covered in people talking about how much they hate Rey.  Why people feel the need to spend time making sure everybody knows they hate a certain product is something I frankly don't understand.  Granted I work 5 days a week, so maybe I just don't have the free time others have.

Short version, don't like Pokemon S/S, don't buy it, move on.  Nobody really cares if GameFreak hurt your little feelings because reasons.
