Why don't they just make the mythicals free patches so people can't datamine them?
what the fuck is that picture

They weren't able to do patches before XY, and I guess by now they're just used to putting them in the game but locking them behind an event.

That's why.

This is an industry standard though. Almost every other game on the market does this. Why is it a problem with pokemon?
Or I guess Gamefreak doesn't really want secrets that much

Hello Jermo.
>>32278134
Because the file where the Pokemon are stored is too big, and they can't make a patch that only adds stuff to it, they have to replace it completely, so it's not worth having a 1gb+ patch to add JUST one Pokemon.
>>32278207
Just make it so you can't access the save again without the patch installed. Lots of other games do this.
>>32278274
They can't just add a "blank spot" in that file and then add pokemon in?
Again, is this how every game works? They want to add in a new level, but they can't just add it in, so they just replace the entire game and replace it with a new game that has that level added in?

>They can't just add a "blank spot" in that file and then add pokemon in?
No because they would have to deal with pointers not being correct, meaning they have to update yet another file.
>Again, is this how every game works?
Every Pokemon game? Yeah. Every 3DS game? Hell no. Other games have a more organized file structure so they can add balance patches and new content with DLC.

so basically this is because gamefreak are incompetent and can't code

ironic shitposting! LOL

Well, not quite. They do it this way because they made it clear they don't like DLCs, that they'd rather give a complete game (I know I know) than something in pieces. The parts that they know they're most likely going to update are small and not cramped together for this very reason.
>>32278207
Why would you delete the patch?
>>32278471

They might actually do this for the Switch games as that has patch sharing over local wireless.
vp want dlc
>>32278134
I'm sure you'll find a way to complain, afterall we've already got tons of people complaining about events being distributed online instead of gamestop codes for some reason
