For Pokemon, it’s multiple layers of being unable to fail.
It can’t fail because it’s insanely popular, especially with crowd that is uninformed or eats shit.
Well if it didn’t have that popularity, it can’t fail because the budget of each game is a shoe string and that tag you have on your clothes. The games could sell poorly, but they make enough of a profit to justify making more.
Well if it couldn’t even maintain those people that still buy it, all Pokemon has to do is keep creating “diversity” characters with woke plotlines, and Larry Fink (CEO of the investment company BlackRock) will just keep the franchise afloat with pretty much an endless stream of money.
Without the fear of failing, why bother trying anymore? Worst case scenario you make the cast of humans all black trans lesbian non-binary wheelchaired queer autistic characters to get Larry Fink money.
