>>55932135I think it ultimately is. People playing games for a living will always gravitate towards the easiest most replayable games because those games make their jobs easier. That means those game's popularity will always be artificially inflated among normalfags. Again, I think every game in the franchise will get their time in the spotlight because fads are cyclical but I don't think it is on influencers' best interest to change people's opinions on this one so they probably won't bother all that much.
RBY and GSC are not really all that streamable, they are too old to look appealing on video and have too many mechanics modern pokemon fans don't know how to engage with. BW/BW2 are in a similar boat to SM/USUM in the sense they are both Gens that get a lot of praise but not a lot of content. Every time someone plays them on camera they'll inevitably bitch endlessly about unskippable dialogue and difficulty curves because they are not easy games to record. Thats why Gen 5 nostalgia was so short and Gen 6 is getting pushed so hard. Gen 7 will be the same, ecelebs are going to rush it as much as they can so they can return to the confort of to the good old days of Gen 8, were a ton of their careers blew up.
