Wait people are upset over the exclusion of the national dex? That's like the first good thing I heard in a while about the new gen.

Because some people are really, really dedicated to avoid saying anything remotely negative about the games so they have to spin everything as actually being good. More options never hurt anyone, but never underestimate the power of blind consumerism has on people.

FYI I haven't played a Pokemon game since Diamond except Uranium. I'm arguing for years now that it would be a good idea to make a clean cut and restart the Pokedex. Having a ridiculously huge Pokedex hurts the motivation to catch them all. Now they just have to not add bullshit like gigantamaxing and I would be back in the series.

Since you have played Diamond you shoukd know that every game has its own regiinal, much more manageable, regional pokedex. The one in SS is one of the largest yet.
Then there's the non-mandatory national dex, which was outright gone in the previous games (although you still could have the monsters themselves if you so wanted).

Didn't know it was missing altogether in sun/moon, well the game had other problems which is why I didn't play it, same with SS.
