If you combine both XY and SM's totals together you get a proper sized generation
XY - 72
SM - 73 (81 with UBs)
Total: 145
Conclusion, XY and SM are one 'super-generation'
>>29307525
> Super Generation
> Has less Pokemon together than Kanto or Unova
OP I think you're off there by a bit
>>29307531
Super-Generation in terms of length and number of games
>>29307525
Yet this "super-generation" has less content than gens 3, 4 or 5.
>>29307531
Watch as they use the "b-b-b-b-b-b-but Johto" argument now, claiming the exception up until gen 6 is the rule.
>>29307531
Wouldn't it be regular length then since these would be the equivalent of Black 2/White 2 while we got our remakes and our core duo?

>pokemon are the only content
Why is this board so stupid? Jesus christ
>>29307611
I'm not, I'm saying it has less content overall, between number of Pokémon, post-game stuff, legendaries etc.
>>29307525
>145
That is a above average generation, let's see what is the average amount of pokemon per generation excluding gen VI and gen VII.
(151+100+135+107+156)/5= 649/5 = 129,8
>>29307531
That would actually make it the 3rd largest roster if we combine Alola and Kalos.
>>29307634
Except that's wrong.
>>29307525Half of Kalos' pokedex was wiped out in the Great Kalos War. Half of what was left after that were killed off by Az's cannon. That's why so many Kanto pokemon were introduced to Kalos. It's gone through two fairly recent mass extinctions.
There's really no excuse for the small number of Alolan mons though.
>>29307525
Wow OP, it's not as if Game Freak isn't above, I dunno, making a full dex and splitting it in half to milk this franchise a little longer, right?
>>29308693
Alola is just a group of small islands
Everyone should have expected it to have a small number of mons
Guys, guys, this isn't /pol/
Both options are absolutely shitty. I'd vote for a corpse before I'd vote for either of those two.
