Other games are rarely released in different versions, only "Pokémon" from the beginning of the form of sub-versions, until "Legend: Arzeus" broke the continuation of the positive sub-version, and with the birth of the sub-version, is the connection exchange of this setting, connection exchange can allow players of different versions of the original version of pokémon that does not belong to the corresponding version, in addition to the birth of some Pokémon must be connected to exchange to evolve, it can be said that in the early years to make a complete picture book, find friends to connect to exchange is a necessary step, then, Now, is the setting of connection switching also obsolete?
PS: This article is purely personal opinion, if there are any errors, please correct.
The essence of connection exchange, is it for social purposes, or is it for the purpose of circle money?

Speaking of the purpose of connection exchange, in the early years of the greatest role is to promote the socialization between the player groups, so that "Pokémon" really did not play by themselves, but will be in order to get together to communicate and interact with friends, so that the "Pokémon" game is not single, so full of fun, players and players show each other their Pokémon, exchange each other's favorite Pokémon, so that the player's social needs in the "Pokémon" game to find a channel, so that the early years of the separate version and connection exchange, Undoubtedly a bold and successful setting, exchanging Pokémon with each other became a great interest for players at that time.
At that time, with the development of information technology, online and offline communication and social networking between players today are not as scarce as in the original generation, not to mention that there are more other forms of interactive entertainment offline, and online dating platforms are emerging in an endless stream. In this regard, many players said that the connection exchange still has to find someone to help make up the map is very time-consuming and laborious, some players think that the connection exchange can be continued, but the evolution of the connection evolution can actually not be retained, and even more believe that the official still maintains the dual version form, just to multi-circle a version of the money.
Should connected evolution continue?
Undoubtedly, the connection exchange as a player to use Pokémon to circulate, mutual cultivation has a great necessity, but whether the connection evolution continues is a certain controversy, one side believes that the connection evolution in today's social form has been diversified in the environment is not much need to retain, and now "Legend: Arzeus" is directly out of the connection rope such a direct evolution of the prop, but the other side believes that there are many ways of Pokémon evolution, simplifying the evolution of the way is actually simplifying the richness of the game, It is not advisable behavior, and it is not known whether the next nine generations, GF will still add direct evolution items such as connecting ropes to meet the players of both sides in the form of maintaining the form of connection evolution.
Of course, as to whether the connection evolution is retained, in fact, Xiao Er feels that "Legend: Arzeus" has taken the lead in making a good move.
