>>41763191>Is there even a breaking point for this?Yes. Pokemon Masters but it ain't valid for many.
>GF cut Pokemon like crazy and gave us the most half assed game on the Switch and it still broke records?That's because they addressed it with Pokemon Home. Also it was normalized thanks to Pokemon Bank, Pokemon Go, and Let's Go Pikachu/Evee.
>Is there literally anything they can do at this point that won't make them money?Again Pokemon Masters.
>I thought removing Pokemon was the limit but a ton of my friends ended up getting mad at me for calling Gamefreak lazy.That's because the dex and pokemon themselves should not be so high in the totem poll. Since logically speaking you will rarely ever see someone raise more than a handful of pokemon to max level, bother to even breed them for competitive play, let alone give a ratass about IV's, EVs, Natures, and Abilities especiall when that the competitive community just injects their pokemon and insults the casuals for doing it the "legitimate" way.
>At this point my greatest wish for the IP is that Gf eventually cuts SO MUCH that people get pissed and stop supporting them,Literally impossible because it's already been established that having 150 pokemon is more than enough especially if you insert pikachu and charizard.
>but it feels like that limit will never be reached.Yeah because Pokken is a thing and it's not so hard to justify a low pokemon count especially in a mainline pokemon game.
>My twitter TL has been drowning in Pokemon/Marnie art for over a week now, Pokemon is just too powerful to fail thanks to these people.They made the company big, they made the company powerful, trying to usurp them now especially without a unified front is what makes it literally impossible.
