Are version exclusives your biggest influence on which version

Wasn't trying to start shit

I wanted to choose Moon when they were revealed because blue is my favourite colour, but then Lunala and the day system were revealed.

I chose Black over White in Gen V because I preferred Reshiram and Black City, but most of my favourite exclusives were in White. For B2W2, I just made my Kyurem the form for the other version because Black Kyurem is shit.

Honestly it doesn't really. Box art does a lot more but if the gap was as big as the scenario you're painting then yes the dex would factor in. It would probably be the deciding factor actually.

Maybe it would be better if OP's idea just skewed the encounter rates for both versions instead of completely limiting them.

I primarily choose based on aesthetic color and use the legendaries as a tie breaker.

Exclusive trash pokes are a non issue with Internet trading.

I chose red because red is best color and super cool dragon on the box
I chose all the fluff in the middle by color
I chose white because the box monster loked less stupid than the black one
I chose X because forest deer made me Mononoke internally
I chose moon because moon aesthetics and the bat looked better than yet another generic fire catdog

What if?
>a biggest ammount of pokemon in dex
>exclusives are determined by the language of the game

Yeah. I usually try to use one version exclusive mon on my first playthrough of a game. I do wish newer games would do more with version exclusive content though. I'd like to see more stuff like black city and white forest, as well as aesthetic differences between versions. More than that, I think having differing routes/paths between versions could be neat. Like have route 2 in one version be a regular grassy route with a river next to it and you encounter the usual regional bird and rodent, but in the other version's route 2 the river has sort of overtaken the route and you've got to wade through shallow water and you can encounter water types there instead.
Or have route 5 in one version be a paved path with trainer battles and little to no grass, but in the other version it's a natural path with lots of grass and a wider variety of wild encounters, but no trainers.

Who made this

>>32445942
If I had to guess, the same person who added the cafe in the pokemon center. Honestly, I will be surprised if that person has not been fired yet.

>>32444800
The only thing I care about is the box art, for the rest I already have a living dex and trading exists anyway

Somehow people managed to get it into their heads that they were version-exclusives during lurantis leak time.

>>32444800
I choose by color or legendary, but exclusives do help break a tie.

Only twice. Once for FR/LG, and second for Sun/Moon. I find it mostly a coincidence that my original pokemon choices didn't involve version exclusives. Now it's more likely to happen. If it comes to it, though, I am fully willing to get both versions just so I can have the pokemon I want.

Not really. Ever since Silver, I always go for the 'blue' version.
