>>36978083Series can turn themselves around quickly. Look at Zelda, TP is middling, then SS made all the flaws of the current style even worse, but somehow they come out with BotW which is a huge sweeping change for the series. Like it or not, it made Zelda an important series to a genre again not just a big name that comes out every few years. Even have Todd Howard coming out saying yeah that game blew us out the water. It happened without a large staff change. If they were motivated they could make Pokemon important outside of brand.
Problem is Pokemon has no reason to change, BLT will sell 6 million despite not costing them anything. They have no reason to improve, you'd need someone who really wants that change. But the passion that they do have feeds into the weakest aspects like more story content. I'd say they are disconnected from what the fans want, but the fans are idiots who will love whatever is put in front of them.
