Why can't pokemon have separate save files?

Because nicknames are better.

I highly doubt that's relevant anymore

At this point it's just because 1 save per game sells better, and it's "tradition"

Two games with multiple save files could have all pokemon (aside from event mons).

With single save files you're forced to interact with at least one third game or punish yourself by resetting one game.

because fuck you give me money

Punishment is resetting for one of two? As opposed to resetting the sole single save file?

Save scumming with trades.

It's so you can make friends and they csn get money from all siblings and lonelyfags that buy multiple versions.

Because...you can't
