The decision to revisit the generation that started it all implicitly stated, “we plan to sell your nostalgia back to you."

They don't care much for anything after that; all you Johnny-come-latelies who like the other three generations that masquerade as Pokémon are simply ignorant of the greatness the franchise used to have.
