Dumb GF decisions

I understand Gen 1 pandering, it is a smart business decision, but for fuck sakes why is there not a single form for a non-Gen 1 pokemon?

>>29545613
Hopefully saving them for DPPt remakes.

>>29545613
i am fine with the fact they only did this with gen 1, but it feels insane to have this few.

>>29545744
agreed

There is way too few of them. They fucked up this gimmick even more than they did with megas.

Hopefully they will add more in the 3rd version/sequels, maybe with them adding the Pokemon League we'll get some more content too.

>XY introduced 28 mega forms for fully evolved pokemon with +100 stat points and broken abilities
>SM introduces only 10 fully evolved different forms with reworked stats

it's one extreme to the other with game freak.

>63 Pokemon

WHY

I expected them to make Gen2 Alola Forms at least. Disappointing.

>>29545613
East Sinnoh/West Sinnoh forms for D/P remake(forms for Pokémon from I, II,III)/sequels(forms for Pokémon from V,VI) anon

>>29545584
Do we have all the sprites from the National Dex too? No way more Pokemon will appear there, but I think there could be a very small chance that some Alolan forms aren't available until post-game. Otherwise I genuinely just can't make sense of how few there are. It's nuts.

>>29545613
Same reason x and y had no non gen 1 megas?

>>29546409
Actually, East/West forms would be cool, although I can see that being only forms for the DP Pokemon, though.

>>29545613
>wasting time and money on pandering to people who stopped playing decades years ago is a smart decision
:^^^^^^^^^^^)

Pokemon that had evolutions or pre-evolutions that were introduced in any generation that wasn't Kanto were automatically excluded.

Legendaries excluded, starters excluded, fossils excluded, Eevee squad excluded, gimmickmons excluded, Pokemon with megas excluded (GF is way too lazy to account for "Alolan Mega [x]" scenarios)

Pretty sure there's not much left after that.

>>29546616
>not much left

Except:
>Caterpie line
>Spearow line
>Ekans line
>Nido lines
>Paras line
>Venonat line
>Psyduck line
>Mankey line
>Growlithe line
>Machop line
>Bellsprout line
>Tentacool line
>Ponyta line
>Seel line
>Shellder line
>Drowzee line
>Krabby line
>Voltorb line
>Koffing line
>Goldeen line
>Staryu line

Plus, Mr. Mime, Jynx, Jigglypuff/Wigglytuff, Clefairy/Clefable, Snorlax, Hitmonlee/Hitmonchan, and the Oddish line (excluding Bellosom) could have got ones too.

>>29546616
I think there would be around 35 lines or single mons left with that. Depending on what you see as a gimmick mon.
They could have at least given their version counter parts one too to make the pandering complete. So Growlithe, Ekans and Mankey's line at least.

>>29547065
Okay, so AAAAALL those lines are eligible for Alola forms

Now which ones would actually be interesting to see Alola forms *of* and not fluff/filler?

>No Aloloan Crustle
Why fucking live

>>29547098
They turned "I have big teeth" Raticate into the Ratatouille God Father, if they'd tried I'm sure they could have come up with something.

>>29547065
>>Ekans line

>pokedex states it has regional variants
>doesn't have Alola form

>>29545584
>not even 20

>>29547065
>forgetting doduo line

literally fight me irl

>>29547098
Staryu
Koffing
Ekans
Tentacool
Voltorb
Ponyta
Maybe bellsprout could get the exeggutor


Also roaming legendary Arcanine

>>29547117
What could have been...

>>29547098
you say that like ALL the ones we actually got are some sort of pinnacle of design and interesting when they're not.

>>29546510
>Same reason x and y had no non gen 1 megas?

The fuck are you on?

>>29547233
Holy fuck, THIS.

>>29547065

>Alolan Staryu/Starmie
>Water/Steel
>Diminished psychic power due to living at deeper depths than other Staryu/Starmie and being unable to make contact with the stars, but body has hardened due to pressure and become sharp as steel. Appearance reminiscent of a giant shuriken.

>>29547327
It hurts. I wanted a cassowary/flamingo form.

>>29547512
>implying a three headed cassowary isn't a sign of the apocalypse.

>>29547615
At least we'd be going down in style.
