When Game Freak expanded more on regional form Pokémon in Sword and Shield, that gave me an idea, one where I used regional form Pokémon as starters on DA: https://www.deviantart.com/hyperdra.....emon-836969397 https://www.deviantart.com/hyperdra.....tion-838863332 https://www.deviantart.com/hyperdra.....tion-842415123 and these ideas were long before Legends Arceus. I was experimenting with my own ideas like what if the regional forms could change the Pokémon's gender ratio and leveling rate as well? And when Legends Arceus came, I was impressed with the regional forms of fully evolved existing starters, but at the same time, slightly disappointed, because the unevolved forms starters as well as their 1st stage evolutions weren't regional forms at all. Now I wonder, which method of regional form starters everyone would love the most: the method I used or the method Game Freak used? I mean, it's very unlikely Game Freak would look at my method because it's a fan-based version, but hey, I'm the one who started it. Now my question goes out to all of you: which version of regional form starters do you like more?
