>>39797841yes it is. let me put it to you this way: in order to justify going back to 2d on a modern console, the overworld sprites would need to be on the level of the mana or breath of fire series, and the battle sprites would need to be snk-tier. based on their track record, do you honestly believe game freak is capable of even coming close to that? ffs, even pokemon's own spinoffs had better spritework than game freak's games.
