Is BW2 really to blame for that, though? IIRC, the extra chapters in XY were from irregular release magazines. There's nothing stopping them from doing something else while BW2 is on hiatus (except for whatever caused it to go on hiatus in the first place, but that can't really be helped anyway, and I was assuming they would've have sorted it out by then).
I don't really think we need a LGPE arc or that it's a good idea. But there could be room for it if they choose to go that route. At least until Shinnoh remakes or whatever come out in 2020.
Well, no, it's B2W2's fault, per se, just the circumstances surrounding this mess of a release schedule.
Also, back when XY and ORAS were still going, Yamamoto was still working on B2W2 bit-by-bit while we waited for it to come back. That allowed them to have a small backlog for when it eventually restarted.
Unless Yamamoto's doing the bit-by-bit thing again, doing something else would only take time out of that. And it's been five years. We can't keep waiting like this for it to end.
If B2W2 was finished, we could potentially have two monthly chapters of SM: one in Corocoro Ichiban and one in Webry. Heck, I'll even take Pokemon Fan back at this point. As long as it means the arc gets some extra content. I really hope B2W2 is finished in a timely manner so we could maybe use the extra space to extend SM's finale. Though I doubt that'll happen given the format of the mini-volume releases only taking content from one magazine.
I just want the full volumes to be caught up so we can have B2W2 finished and XY and ORAS have the extra content.
