Once you get to a certain point the only way to get new pokemon is to grind eggs and they set the drop rates for some so low it takes dozens and dozens of eggs to get them. Then you have the regional pokemon that are normally impossible to get without travel that will become available for special events if you shell out for 10+ bucks. Its manipulative

I think I have all the ones from eggs which are possible, I'd need to check though. Regional Pokémon haven't been limited for a while, you can get them in 7km eggs which you get from others.
