Line 33:
* [[Mis Blamed]]: The one thing fans seem to remember to blame Game Freak for rather than [[Nintendo]] in the Pokémon games is the inability to transfer Pokémon from the first two generations' games to ''Ruby and Sapphire'' onward. However, this is - coincidentally enough - the one complaint that the company had no control over - the [[Game Boy Advance]] wouldn't allow interaction with the [[Game Boy]] and [[Game Boy Color]] games ''at all'', even if they wanted to make it possible (which it probably would have been considering every other generation at least allows transfers from the old games to the new ones).
** Not to mention, the haters of the series as well as even some of the fans...they don't even realize ''eight years later'' that Nintendo is only the publisher and most gameplay issues (with the exception of "Cutting off ties to previous generations") were actually due to Game Freak.
* [[Moral Event Horizon]]: In ''Emerald'', Maxie was more than willing to cross this by dumping a ton of rocket fuel into Mt. Chimney to force it to erupt by claiming that there was no more use for it, which would have killed a ''lot'' of people. Thankfully, when he's defeated for the last time, he realizes the error of his ways and ceases his criminal activities.
* [[Older Than They Think]]: Species aside, Milotic is the first [[Shout-Out]] to ''The Ugly Duckling'', long before [[Pokémon/Characters/Generation V Families|Ducklett/Swanna]].
* [[Replacement Scrappy]]: Well, Scrappy might be too strong of a word here, but Steven is considerably more popular as the Champion than Wallace.
** Some prefer Steven to Wallace because Steven uses the Steel type but doesn't ''exclusively'' use Steel-type Pokémon due to the lack of Steel-types in the Pokédex, so he's a bit more of a [[Worthy Opponent]] than Wallace; who uses Water-types and is quite easy to beat. [[Your Mileage May Vary]]; but some also prefer Wallace just because he helps Sceptile catch up...and the Water-type actually is rather powerful due to the "One type uses one stat".
* [[The Scrappy]]: Wingull joins Tentacool and Zubat in the ranks of Pokémon Scrappies
** Luvdisc, thanks to being more or less completely useless with it's only worthwhile function being that it provides Heart Scales for the Move Tutor.
** Spinda to a lesser extent, it's stats are all below average (Sixty across the board), but it's a bit less hated for it's gimmick (No two Spinda share the exact same spot patterns, making them a bit fun to collect for some).
** Mightyena. Let's see: Intimidate, Swagger, Sand-Attack, and Roar. Surely makes for an annoying foe.
* [[Scrappy Mechanic]]
** The incredibly exhausting way of catching a Feebas, and then evolving it to a Milotic.
