Serious answer: TPC forcing GameFreak to release games within a short timeframe and GameFreak still unable to adapt to hardware and optimization. Mix that with the #ThankYouGameFreak bullshit that GO secondaries (Keyword) spammed on twitter and there was no incentive to make a good product.
Actual answer now that I said, Pokemon GO. All those journalists asking for a mobile Pokemon game back in 2013-15? They finally got it, and on the 20th anniversary of the franchise no less.
That said, TemTem and Palworld aren't the answer. Pokemon taking a nosedive doesn't mean this game is suddenly the better alternative. Remember when everyone funded W101 to be ported to other consoles?
Remember when those same ports underperformed as well?
