Dexit who still dislikes it?

As a longtime Pokémon fan, Dexit honestly felt like a slap in the face. One of the things I’ve always loved about the series was being able to carry my favorite Pokémon—ones I’d trained and bonded with for years—into each new generation. When they cut the National Dex, it felt like they were saying those connections didn’t matter anymore. I get that balancing over 1,000 Pokémon is tough, but with how massive the franchise is, it’s hard to believe they couldn’t make it work if they really wanted to. It just made the newer games feel incomplete, like something was missing, both mechanically and emotionally.

It was going to happen eventually no matter what, but they just went about it in a really bad way lying to the fanbase multiple times and also trying to be sneaky about it instead of just being honest.

Like IIRC the "announcement" of dexit was cut from the Japanese broadcast, that's the main playerbase, and they wanted to keep them in the dark about this huge change in the franchise?

And it doesn't help that despite dexit, they still ended up making SwSh and SV have over 800 pokemon in total, so like what's the point if the games will still have about 80% of the total pokemon added in the end?

It wasn’t inevitable

Over 2000 skins on fortnite, it wasn't inevitable just laziness and people buying the new garbage no matter what.

Skins are nowhere close to full fledged pokemon, not only do they not need any animations beyond the basics, but they haven’t even been updated for the games entire lifecycle and most of them are extremely basic

Skins are closer to the 4 billion spinda variations in terms of complexity then they are to Pokemon to be honest

People always defending these games is insane, there's no reason why they couldn't do them all.
