Alright, I figured out the reason why getting a smaller amount of Pokémon this gen bugs me. Normally I'm fine with whatever number it is, since I like the designs, and that's what's ultimately important. But looking over all the new designs, the reason finally hit me:

Every gen, we get 3 starters and their evos, a regional bird, regional rodent, a bug line, and some legendaries. This did not change in gens 6 or 7.

Gen 6 gave us 72 new Pokémon, but those 9 starters plus Talonflame and Diggersby and Vivillon are already 17; they had the foresight to only add 5 legendaries and mythicals, but that's already 30% of them!

And now Gen 7 is giving us (presumably) 73 new Pokémon, and it's the same: Starters+Pikipek+Yungoos+Grubbin is again 17; I don't know if the Tapus are legendary, but we've got 4 already in Solgaleo, Lunala, Magearna and Marshadow. In fact I'd assume the Tapus are not legendary for this reason, since it gives pretty much the same ratio otherwise.

While I understand Megas and UBs and regional variants will add more variety, and I'm fine with that, I'm increasingly worried that all the new Pokémon species we get will follow this pattern, causing a larger and larger portion of the Pokédex to be these kinds of Pokémon.

Am I worrying about nothing or do you guys share my concern?

If I had told you a week ago that SM, not counting UBs and alola forms, only added 73 new pokemon, would you have believed me?

So! We're in the final stretch, less than a month away until S/M.

Heres some stuff to do while you wait:

Do a Pokemon drawing challenge. For example, draw your fave gen 2 pokemon one day, draw fave gym leader second day, etc.

Do a nuzlocke. Kinda obvious

Try something Pokemon related that you've never done before. like shiny hunting! or it can be something creative like, writing your first fic

Livestream Pokemon movies, anime episodes, playthroughs, etc. Rewatching old stuff with people always gets me excited

Talk about what youre looking forward to!! Is there something S/M that you've always wanted? Pleasant surprises? New pokebro?

feel free to add to this!!

>US gaming publication Game Informer has run a lengthy interview with long-time series producer, director and composer Junichi Masuda. There’s a wealth of content to be learnt from the interview but one of the highlight questions was whether Pokémon Sun & Moon would be the last Pokémon game for the Nintendo 3DS with the Nintendo NX expected to launch in March 2017. Here’s what he had to say about this.

>With the NX looming next year and whatever that could mean for handheld Nintendo consoles, will Sun and Moon be the last Pokémon games for 3DS?

>Junichi Masuda: When it comes to the main series, thinking of Pokémon RPGs that we develop at Game Freak, we always really considered the timing of when we released them. There has to be a certain point where we’re able to release the games and get them into the hands of enough people, to make sure the audience is big enough. This year, with Pokémon Sun and Moon, obviously we’re going to be starting to think about the next title, and then depending on what that timing is, I think that will determine which we platform we would release it on.
Also, nx is confirmed a handheld. Discuss
