They'll just be in other games Yeah...other people's games. You do realize the main point of trading is to trade with other people, right? It's supposed to feel like you're building a real life collection. You're supposed to acquire the pokemon you can't get in your own version by negotiating trades with other people. With just Ultra Sun you can collect every pokemon in the first 7 gens. And now Gamefreak's shills want to downplay the importance of collecting, even though Gamefreak still happily sells multiple versions and will charge money for online trading. Pokemon was literally based on bug collecting...like, just imagine if you told a bug collector that they were forbidden from collecting over half of the bugs species in the world. Dexit is stripping Pokemon of part of its soul. Except thats not what theyre doing. They want to trade with themselves to fill out a DEX. And to get other Pokmon. Though, at that point, youve already caught them. But are getting them from one game to another. Which is different than trading a Weedle and Caterpie with each other to get them... So, its like you already built the collection, but just want to move it to a different book (like cards in a binder). So, theres still not really a problem. You dont lose your collection. You just have to leave them in another book... I dont think they downplayed it, tbh. I mean, you can still Catch em all. Just in different games. And you can still get everything available in the game. Meaning you can catch all the available ones. And you must realize that 800+ Pokmon is ridiculous. And if they keep adding new Pokmon, its going to get really ridiculous. The cut was going to come at some point. And soon. It just turns out this game is where it happens. Plus, one day, they might possibly give the Pokmon more animations. But they probably wont do it for 1000+ at one time. And they may start rotating them. And so, in the end, no one in banned from collecting, or not able to collect everything. They just cant move them to another game. They still have them. Theyve already caught them... Its not stripping anything... --- Official King of Kings Switch FC: 7216-4417-4511 Add Me because I'll probably add you.
