With hardware as limited as what nintendo puts out, and a studio as incompetent at 3D as gamefreak, you can genuinely achieve higer levels of detail, beauty, and immersion with spritework than 3D. The Switch might suck for 3D graphics, but with its processing power compared to the last dedicated 2D systems, it could support spritework on a whole other level, if they were dedicated to it. And I know that the whole argument in the first place is that gamefreak are lazy and undedicated, but given that their 2D games actually looked good they must have had skill at that, and if they play on that strength rather than an area they clearly have no skill in (3D), they could make the first truly good-looking Pokemon games in over a decade.
