The theme of the reaction to the National Dex was play up in a late interview with Masuda byVG247.Masuda discussed the internal chemical reaction to the repercussion and the reasoning behind the cut :

" It ’s not necessarily that it ’s made us rethink things per se , but what we are always looking at for the future is what we can do to make the most interesting game possible and make a more enjoyable , fat experience for the fans . For lesson , when we total new movement and abilities we create a deeper experience for everyone to enjoy . This time around we can also give mass a greater attachment to the Pokemon that are in the game , which is something we think is very crucial . So we unquestionably – we do n’t have regrets about what we ’ve done . "

Pokémon Sword & Shieldhas been adding a lot of unexampled content that would normally appease the longtime fan of the series , such asbizarre Gigantamax forms for classic   Pokémonand Modern evolutions and regional variants for Farfetch’d , Ponyta , and Weezing . The promulgation of these unexampled additions that are steeped in nostalgia forPokémon Red & Bluehave all been overshadowed by the determination to move out the National Dex , which is seen as sacrilege by some fans .

There has been an expectation that Game Freak would reverse its decisiveness to thin the National Dex and would add the missing   Pokémon into the game through post - launch content , which would in all probability have pervade the disputation . The developer have stood their ground and not changed naturally on their decisionto leave   Pokémon out ofPokémon Sword & Shield . The question now is whether the pick to remove the National Dex will have a prejudicial effect on the plot ’s gross sales , asPokémon Sword & Shieldare poised to be some of the biggestNintendo Switchgames of the yr .
