Wait a minute guys.

A few years ago, a TPC spokesperson said that the future of Pokemon was "flowers".

Aside from several major characters in Alola being named after flowers, all of the non-Kanto Pokemon that TPCi has been tweeting about recently are flower-related. Bellossom, Lilligant, Flabebe, and now Comfey.

I don't think you understand words, or English for that matter. Stop taking everything literally, autist.

a franchise can't be dead if it's still getting new content on a near-constant basis and that content is generally popular and well-received.
the anime might be dying, though, i've heard the ratings are terrible

TV Tokyo doesn't give a shit

https://soranews24.com/2018/12/20/abysmal-viewer-ratings-for-pokemon-anime-series-does-not-worry-its-broadcaster-the-slightest-bit/

>The Pokémon anime series came along in April 1997, racking up a modest viewer rating of 10.2 percent at the start, then rapidly climbing to 17.1 percent after three months. By November that year, Ash Ketchum and his monster-catching adventures propelled ratings to 18.6 percent, the highest ever in TV Tokyo’s history.

>As of September 2018, audience rating for the Pokémon anime series has dropped to a pitiful three percent. That might spell trouble for a relatively small broadcasting company like TV Tokyo when compared to giants like Nippon TV, but the company is determined to step away from the common belief that ratings are everything, keeping itself afloat with licensing rights and various collaborations.

>TV Tokyo has come a long way from its humble beginnings struggling to make ends meet. Thanks to Anpanman, Evangelion and Pokémon, the broadcaster has been brought back from the brink and is sailing smooth in the rough waters of the broadcasting industry.

They don't give a fuck about ratings, they said themselves that merchandise and sponsorships are all they care about, and the anime has that in spades

Apparently people are watching the anime in non-standard ways to traditional ratings-based viewing methods, but that's second hand info so am not really sure if it's accurate. I do know that despite the apparent poor ratings, TV Tokyo don't really care, they earn enough off the pokémon anime, both through advertisers and through selling the show to other markets, that they are more than happy to continue to produce the anime as it currently stands.
