Why not just have a game with ONLY Pikachu, Charizard, Mewtwo, Eevee, Meowth, Lucario and the like with ten or so shitty new Pokemon that won't ever be seen again after the game they appear in?
It's clearly what the majority wants, and they also openly despise the idea of a large Pokedex, so it'd be an absolute win/win for everyone in charge of Pokemon.
Game development becomes piss easy and even cheaper due to only having a fraction of the Pokemon to work with at all times, profits soar even higher because of the cheapened development costs, and the games themselves still sell well because sheep will buy literally anything with the Pokemon Logo on the box.
