Honorable mention to the fact that everything on the Switch sells like crazy.I've said it once, I'll say it again: Pokemon will never sell """badly""", at worse, it will underperform, but it absolutely will never flop. There's just too many people out there who literally, unironically only buy it because it's an easy, colorful RPG starring Pokemon.
The absolute only way this chain will ever break is if someone at TPC goes on an 8-hour rant on global news networks about how much they hate minorities and the entire LGB+ group, then after the rant, TPC never apologizes, then removes anyone with darker skin from the future games, which also happen to have cut gen 1 and even cutting Pikachu.
