This is what I don't get - I always assumed "too many pokemon" was the reason that they couldn't make a non-shit game and instead just endlessly rehash the same exact antiquated gameplay from a 20 year old Game Boy game.
Like ok, cut it back down to 150 or 200 pokemon, but then bring the franchise to the modern world with legitimate fighting animations, a real-time battle system, the ability to actually interact with your pokemon, anything like that. This would be fucking perfect and people would lose their shit over it the way they did over Breath of the Wild.
Instead we just have the worst of both worlds - they're taking stuff OUT instead of advancing the franchise in any way like they should. It truly makes no fucking sense
