Wouldn't it be easier to have a count for 'non-regional' pokedex - and then people can add the one, two or three regionals they can attain in their specific area.
I think any pokedex count should be stated without regionals - then it is an actual global count, rather than some perochial count that isn't even consistent within some countries borders.
Kind of off topic...but I wanted to make the point without a whole dedicated thread.
