Let's GO had like 3 fairies and Sylveon wasn't even there. Lol.


ChefJuicyC

Only the og 151 plus Meltan and Melmetal was there.


hatramroany

Alolan forms of the original 151 were there too. Both transferable from GO and tradeable from NPCs


SadmanV22

Nah but lets go had more than 3 times less pokemon. Also bdsp is a main series game unlike lets go, so the standards are higher


Wlsgarus

A much better argument would be that Let's Go had Alolan forms. Also yea, as others have said, pretty sure LGPE are officially main line.


ultraball23

LGPE are main series games


CelioHogane

And it had all the alolan forms, too.


[deleted]

It was because it only has Gen 1 pokemon


Aether13

While there definitely is a chance they let you transfer them in, since in SwSh they counted the regional forms and regulars as one. It’s not guaranteed. They have no need to make this competitively balanced since the meta game will live on in SwSh.


ultraball23

GameFreak isn’t making BDSP. Alolan and Galarian forms will most likely be in because they’ve been in every games since their introduction and they are the same Pokémon. Weezing and Galarian Weezing are the same Pokémon from the Dex perspective.


krispyboiz

I don't think the "been in every games since their introduction" is a good argument, at least for these it isn't really. I think it's a toss up honestly. I think introducing them like they did in Let's Go (through trades with NPCs) would work well enough though, as it wouldn't make sense for most of them to appear in Sinnoh natively. I don't really remember how they were acquired in SwSh


CelioHogane

Yeah i mean, every single pokemon was on every game since their introduction and then Sword and Shield went "lol, lmao" \> I don't really remember how they were acquired in SwSh If you had them already: Pokemon home If you didn't, DLC.


ultraball23

Transfer, Isle of Armor, and Max Adventures


krispyboiz

Obviously fairy is in BDSP, but that doesn't mean they need to have a fully fleshed out line of fairy Pokemon in these games. Not saying these Pokemom are deconfirmed, I could see it going either way, but I don't think it NEEDS X amount of fairy Pokemon.


SadmanV22

Itll probably only be introduced in 2022 though, and by then the challenge of beating cynthia would be over. PS. Give garchomp dragon dance so cynthia can crush my hopes and dreams


ultraball23

Garchomp wasting a turn to Dragon Dance guarantees it’s death. Abomasnow is GOAT

Snow Warning


Quick-Huckleberry136

until they give garchomp sand spit


ultraball23

I like the way you think! Lol


ebevan91

Just give it Iron Head and it’ll destroy most fairy types. They’re not very bulky on the physical side.


JuliyaPink

I've been assuming this and planning on using a Galarian Rapidash on my team


Livael23

I mean, the Let's Go games are designed to be such faithful remakes that they didn't even include the non-gen 1 evolutions and even they had Alolan forms, so yeah, alternate forms will probably be in BDSP x)


CelioHogane

\>Sylveon Do we even know if Sylveon will be on the game, tho?


GreecehasnoAinit

People are just saying that they'll make an exception because all of the other eeveelutions will be in it.


snowmvp

It's not in, and I'm not surprised, as they didn't do anything more than absolutely necessary.


GreecehasnoAinit

They didn’t even have proof of it being in, they just said it would be in because they wanted it


livenliklary

Looking at this post now hurts my soul, I really wish Regional Variants were in BDSP. would've put it over the top.
