    It's moronic for them to shill a DLC that came out over a month ago, when everyone is expecting new announcements.

    They ain't making scammy Third version rehashes anymore, like in the GB/GBA/NDS/3DS eras, and that's ''bad''

      Bad example, those handheld games cost $40, so one of the base pair and the third version would cost $80, while the newer games with DLC cost $90/95.

      You bought a $60 unfinished game then paid an additional $30+ for the rest of that game.
      Something something pot calling the kettle black.

      Bait aside, the fact people legitimately believe this drives me up the wall.
      Old option 1:
      >buy $30 game
      >game is feature-complete
      >everything functions right out of the box
      >if you want, you can buy the third version for another $30, but you only really needed to do that to show off, because most weren't THAT big of a difference
      >you can also sell your first copy for $10 before buying the new game
      >can even sell for more if you sell directly to someone
      >everything's transferrable, outside of some hardware-limited cases

      Old option 2, the Chad option:
      >wait for third version
      >game is feature-complete
      >everything functions right out of the box
      >buy original copy for $15-20 or buy third version for $30
      >everything's transferrable, outside of some hardware-limited cases

      Now:
      >buy $60 game + NSO sub
      >half the dex is locked
      >dungeons are literally hallways, probably slapped together by the art team in 10 minutes
      >everything in the entire game feels super unfinished
      >Pokemon animation selection is worse than the 3DS games
      >the main stories are even easier than before, and much shorter too
      >plots are somehow worse than "guys that want land vs guys that want water"
      >transferring anything between games is hard or impossible, requiring you to keep a Home and NSO sub to transfer and keep anything, which is now mandatory since the new games have different dex locks
      >DLC released, $30
      >if anyone new gets in NOW, the only way to get a complete experience is to spend $90 fricking dollars, and Pokemon doesn't go on sale as deep or as often as other franchises
      >DLC is a little different between versions, so you're incentivized to buy both games and both DLCs (though I imagine people aren't THIS stupid... right?)
      >still incentivized to maintain your NSO and Home subs the whole time
      >even after the DLC, the games are still subjectively (and a bit objectively) unfinished

        Didn't happen, the only ones to buy the rehash were kids and the addicted. The occasional poorgay may have bought in late, but bulk of sales were to people who already played the game that Gen, be they child or adult.
        Stop pretending like you WEREN'T a hilariously moronic frickwit child who got all versions of a game that got shat out. They killed rehashes fricking 10 years ago.

      The DLC is scammier. At least in the era of third versions you could hold off on buying the original and still get the complete version later for a reasonable price.

      I've seen people legitimately angry that B2W2 were made instead of a Grey version. Some people are just nuts.

    Funny how all of these things have been problems since SwSh, but people didn't start complaining until a whole gen later

      those have been problems since they made the jump to 3D in general

        yeah, gen 4 was a mistake

        Gen 6 looked kinda bad with how the map was still obviously designed around a 2D top-down grid, but Gen 7 had some nice eye-candy when it came to town design. I think they deliberately made the routes and streets really curvy and non-perpendicular just to show off that they weren't following a grid anymore.

    Starter Pokémon “coming back” used to be standard when you had Pal Park or whatever. Now its DLC…

        You were supposed to have the game in the first place because you bought it years ago for the sake of playing it. It was meant for you to transfer your buddies across games so that the Gen 2/3 non-transferable dilemma that killed Pokemania never happened again. They didn't expect you to buy a used copy of a GBA game that they no longer make money off of JUST to get a few Pokemon off of it.

      You can still transfer it through HOME, homosexual. You don't need DLC for that

    You can get mons in the DLC pokedex without the DLC, I’m using Lapras in my SV base game team right now, no DLC purchased.

      Not moronic, just disingenuous.
      They've been pushing a "yOu NeEd To PaY fOr Da PoGeYmAnS" angle since 2020 and Game Freak announcing rehashes were kill.
      Despite every DLC announcement noting the pokémon would be added as an update for all games and the price point was solely for the new content being produced.

        still sucks having to wait for content that was a given back then

          Define content. Because I guarantee you and I have a different approximation of "content".
