Congratulations on graduating College! Big deal! I know, I should have said that last year, but I wasn't here last year. ^-^

Yeah it's kinda annoying, but most of what it's hurting is the competitive circuit. Even then it isn't the end of the world -- people are just looking at it the wrong way.

It's not like this is going to be a feature permanent to all main-series games. Plus, it forces the player to be more resourceful with what's available in-game and that'll be interesting.

Nah, the producer of the games outright said there wouldn't be.

Sounds like they had a pretty decent reason, though.
The way the 'sprites' work nowadays is that they need to make 3D models for each Pokemon, and doing so involves not only work into making the model itself, but coding to program it into the game, making it move, and making it interact. Because SW/SH will be on a new console, they'd have to make individual models for each and every Pokemon up to date. They can't re-use models from the 3DS games because the coding is not compatible. They'd have to start from scratch.

Doing that would take up to another year, and they don't want to have to spend all that time on it.

As for what Pokemon WILL be in SW/SH, there are a couple growing lists. I find the one on Bulbapedia to be the most accurate: https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/List_of_Pok%C3%A9mon_by_Galar_Pok%C3%A9dex_number

I think they need to release more updates. It's crazy. Almost November and we don't even know what the starters 2nd stage is. I think they're traumatized because last year that disgruntled Chinese dude leaked the final evos way too early.

Also, the legendaries being wolves and the region being  England makes me think of an Arthurian legend. A knight named Melion makes a promise to his wife and uses a magical ring to transform into a wolf to fulfill this promise. But his wife is disloyal and elopes with the ring, thus preventing Melion from never turning back into a human. He later goes to King Arthur, who is amazed by the tame and courtly behavior of the wolf. King Arthur thus enlists the wolf as a companion. Melion finds the squire his wife eloped with and kills him, and Arthur knows he must have had a reason so investigates. King Arthur figures out the truth and orders the ring be brought back to turn Melion back into a man.
So that's cool.

Also, Scorbunny fills the place of a Chinese zodiac, which all Fire type starters do.
Charizard is the dragon (ironic)
Typhlosion is the rat (I guess)
Blaziken is the rooster
Infernape is the monkey
Emboar is the pig
Delphox is the dog
Incineroar is the tiger
And Scorbunny is the rabbit

All that's left is the ox, snake, horse, and goat. So there'll probs be five more generations. Also, I have know way to prove this but my brother and I totally predicted Galar. We said the next region would either be based off of England or Australia. Now we're guessing the next one will be either Australia or India.

An Australia region would be kickass! Think about all the deadly animals that already exist there. That'd be intense. And the Fire starter could be the snake, too.

Anyway, that's my take on the whole thing. It's looking pretty decent. Dynamax is a joke but I'm interested to see how it works into the story. It looks untrustworthy to me... Like dark forces are causing it.
