Hmmm, although I get your point, I feel like that's less of a paywall than legends of arceus.

In swsh, I completed all 3 pokedex relatively simply; it's expected to be able to find people with the other version eventually when trading.

In LoA, that's not the case. You Must have the 2 previous games (sw or sh + diamond/pearl remake) or a friend with those to complete the pokedex. That's pretty damn shitty imo, and worse than the trading paywall you're referring to. It's even worse when you consider the fact that THEY ACTUALLY REMOVED THE TRADING PAYWALL lmfao, and added this one instead. I see people be like "wow it's so cool you can now get all evolutions without trades" but they don't see this new horrible paywall of "own previous games" (ala Call or Duty style).
