This guy has made bogus claims before and they are easily disprovable.
Let's go through a Twitter thread from claims this guy has made.

>The original plot was sacrificed in order to put the game in 3DThis statement is false in numerous ways. First, we know that XY was always going to be in 3D, as the first design document from June 2010 shows us. (pic related and

Roughly translated, it reads:
>Setting is France.>Historic towns, castles, and lakes.>Lots of tourists, with many museums, buildings, and sights to see. Large tourism industry.>New Pokemon [blanked]>Makes names and such 7 characters.>Type related towns, like a Poison town and Water town.>Strengthen elements of playing with your Pokemon.>Protagonist and Pokemon are in 3D. <<<Big one here.>Font just for narration.>Focus are the main.>Can ride Pokemon.Second, why would they scrap the plot if they were forced to make the game 3D? They aren't related and it'd be more effort to redo the plot than to stick with the original one.
>Well for stuff like that you gotta dig in the codingNone of this is in XY's code.
>XY didn't get a follow up because of it not doing as well in Japan has its competitorsWhat?
>XY suffered because it was outsold by YW which lead to them scrapping sequelsAnd this is so hilariously false that it's amazing anyone trusts this guy. XY sold 16.20 million copies globally; it's the best selling game on the 3DS library.
