>Digimon has multiple unique attack, defend and special attack animations for all its monsters, all of them can follow you in the overworld and the overworld is rich and detailed. PS Vita, 300+ monsters
>Dragon Quest Monsters 3 has multiple attack animations for each monster, EVERY monster is rideable, the game has a fleshed out overworld and ecosystem where monsters prey on other monsters, they interact and change the environment and even change forms depending on the environment. All of this on the 3DS, 500+ monsters
>Yokai Watch has multiple attack animations for all its monsters and they all follow you in the overworld. 3DS game, 700+ monsters
But it's too much to ask for the biggest franchise in the world, on a Nintendo Switch home console, after it has cut down the number of Pokemon to 400 or 500, to have higher quality animations, let your Pokémon follow you and let you ride your Pokémon to traverse the environment and to actually put some effort into the """"open world area"""" to make it feel like a live ecosystem with its own dynamics
