given the abundance of grass/bug guys in the gen 5 dex i imagine they may be more concerned with the metal count, but who can say.

even if i entertain whatever it is you mean by "filler" here, definitionally a new monster design is less "filler" than a recycled one.

a set consisting of only generation 8 pokemon etc would suck, is what i'm saying, both because it's a kinda shoddy roster spread of totally disconnected creatures when you take out the dex filler and because it doesn't really represent the game anymore (especially when you consider...

you may not, but the people who design the sets take special care, and as far as i know almost always have taken special care to ensure that every pokemon card can be played using cards from the set you pull them from. moreover, there's a bit of a misunderstanding of the point. the point is...

bzzzzt wrong

you're telling me a card has the name of the card printed on it? the horror.

certainly a choice. i wonder why they'd test the waters for this now of all times.

yeah, the last generation where the developers actually cared about doing anything interesting. if only we could have known how much worse things were going to get.

yeah, wouldn't want them to repeat a good idea. more slop please!
