Diamond again

[farla]

Been inching along - I've been spending my time running around raising berries, trying to make my buneary love me.

(That name itches with lost potential. Dune! Bune/dune. Buneary should be some sort of desert rabbit rather than yet another generic normal type.)

Anyway, so I'm around L20 now. I raised up a budew pretty far before finding out it's a preevolution of a 3rd gen pokemon and promptly dumping it. When the revolution comes, the guy who thought preevolutions were a great idea is first against the wall.

Yeah. Second-gen they were a nice novelty that was actually plausible because it was the first time you could breed pokemon, and there were only a handful.

Third gen? Pokedex filler. I mean seriously, they are a weaker version of an existing pokemon. They could have just as easily added moves to Wobbuffet's movepool. Fourth gen? Ugly pokedex filler.
