Mine went away when they discovered like 400 new pokemon and still told me I gotta catch em all.

No mate.

150 (151 actually omg you didnt even know that what kind of fan are you you didnt even…) was plenty. Took me fucking ages to get them all. Im not going through that shit again.

Idk, I completed both Gen I and II fully, getting all 151 (plus MissingNo.) and 251 Pokemon respectively in those games, and it wasn’t that bad. If you’re just doing the regional pokedex each game I’d probably find it fun because I like collecting things.

Trying to complete the national pokedex in later games sounds miserable though. 1,000+ Pokemon in one game?? No thanks. But I’m fairly certain you can’t even complete the national pokedex anymore because many older Pokemon just aren’t in the newer games.

Yea new games don’t even have a full national dex, iirc anything past the 3ds lacks a full national dex. Pay more for less!

I feel like that was bound to happen eventually. They’re already at over 1,000 pokemon and this is a cash cow they’re never putting down. It’s still super lame though.
