Yes, regarding old fan favourites, I'm still quite bitter about Gypceros occupying any space in this game whatsoever. The 1st gen monsters were good for their time, but the new models and monster types we got in 3rd gen and 4th gen are just leagues and leagues ahead. So much more... fluid movement, I guess you could say. Raths and Diablos get a pass because they were properly updated for 3rd gen, and I'd have no problems with any returning monsters if they got that kind of treatment (iirc I made this exact complaint in Pink Fatalis' Poll, so I'll stop repeating myself).
