On Regionals and the World Cup

In fact, I think they should completely abandon the concept of regionals.

Absolutely not.

One of the fun aspects of going on holiday/business trips is returning with an exotic that makes your friends jelly.

It is one of the few remaining challenges in the game. I think it's great that you simply can't just "have everything" by staying in the one place.

I'd rather they be available with a difficult quest, or one that takes a while to accomplish. I get the argument of traveling to find them but i don't want to have to spend a thousand dollars in plane tickets to fill out my pokedex.

well I think it would be great. maybe we have to throw a ball into the goal also. why not make a game fun?
