I remember being upset that I just learned 2nd gen when they added a third. My hair is turning grey.

my Boomer opinion: there are only 151 Pokemon, the rest are mental illnesses

Exactly. How else are you meant to “catch 'em all!”? It’s a Sisyphean task otherwise

It’s probably worse than that. Every time it rolls back down, it becomes a bigger boulder, because new pokemon are there

You can’t even ‘catch ‘em all’ anymore anyway. There are too many so they have to keep pulling more and more from the games.

Up to the 3ds games there was always a way to trade pokemon at least 1 generation up (red to silver, silver to ruby, etc) if they continued that trend it should still technically be possible. But eventually you’ll get to a point where it will take long to trade pokemon up than it takea for a new game to come out.
