>>24561278We said no to gen 6 mechanics because the balance would be off for most of them with no fairy type. Back in 2012, before gen 6, we had to make a decision as a project that in the (at the time) unlikely event gen 6 brought a new type, would we want to include it in our game. Ultimately, as a project, we voted no to that. With all of the other changes that gen 6 brought, we felt that having gen 6 mechanics but with no fairy type could lead to imbalances that we could not plan for. We know what gen 5 and no fairies looks like and we know what gen 6 with fairies looks like, but we do not know what gen 6 with no fairies or gen 5 with fairies looks like. So rather than fumble in the darkness, we're opting to stick to what is known to honor that past survey.
If Gen 7 comes out before we release our game, I fully expect that decision to be revisited, but that's a shitstorm for another time.
