A lot of complications with how the 3ds is handled does seem to almost always tie back to Pokémon home, an issue that could be so easily amended if TPC wasn’t so stingy about having support for 6th gen and 7th gen mons that are harder to port. It’s so silly how coy they ultimately are about wanting you to make Pokémon to be your entire life whilst also making it difficult to maintain it as such, what with their constant cannibalization of their old hardware. It’s white exhausting trying to keep track of all the different trades you could make in Pokémon home. So much time would be saved if a few games were allowed to be re-released, rather than being stuck in 3ds purgatory.
