>without bringing up nu-Gen standards or definitions.

gee that was fast kek

the two games can't battle each other

So BDSP is Gen 9, LA is Gen 10, and SV is Gen 11?

So FRLG is a new Gen?
So HGSS is a new Gen?
So ORAS is a new Gen?
So BDSP is a new Gen?
So LA is a new Gen?

>PLA is Gen 16
>SV will be Gen 17

newly introduced starters

So LA is a new Gen?

Yellow, LGPE and PLA still count because Pikachu is a new starter, Eevee is a new starter and the Hisuian Forms are new starters because the franchise considers regional variants to be brand new Pokemon entirely.

We said without bringing up nu-Gen standards, that goes both ways retard.
LGPE did irrecoverable damage to this franchise though, I'll say that much.
the starters in FRLG aren't new
the starters in HGSS aren't new
the starters in ORAS aren't new
the starters in BDSP aren't new
the starters in LA are somewhat not new

newly introduced pokemon as the starters
i didn't know rowlet, cyndaquil and oshawott were new pokemon?

Their final stages are new Pokemon.

they are not. regional forms aren't new pokemon

I really wish we had a bigger monster taming community that isn't just Pokémon. What a shit thread.
>inb4 not a coom thread
Yeah, but our standards shouldn't be so fucking low in the first place

But the franchise considers forms and variants to be new Pokemon. Masuda said they've already broken 1000 Pokemon total during a Famitsu Interview regarding SWSH.

Spin offs

yes and masuda also said every pokemon is important to them

>appeal to authority

>NOOOOOOOO YOU CAN'T JUST LISTEN TO THE OFFICIAL SOURCE YOU NEED TO FOLLOW MY SCHIZO HEADCANON THAT'S ACTUALLY THE ABSOLUTE GOSPEL I KNOW THIS FRANCHISE BETTER THAN THE PEOPLE WHO'VE BEEN MANAGING IT FOR OVER TWO DECADES

show me what pokemon takes up dex slot 1000 then

>”explain why gen 2 is a new gen without explaining what constitutes a new gen”
dumb frogposter

none. because National Dex isn't in any game since 2016.
>m-muh cashgrab app!
not a game.

You could argue the semantics about any gen not being a new gen by that logic.
