I really do believe that Sword & Shield sufferer because of GameFreak’s strict development schedule. The supposed loss of models didn’t help either. So with that in mind, I’m willing to give GF a second chance. SwSh’s existence will give the developers a chance to actually start at a much further along stage for Gen 9, leaving much more opportunity for polish and overall development. Anyone else excited for when we finally get Gen 9 masterpieces?

>Now, if Gen 9 aren’t the franchise defining titles (aka Breath of the Wild/Mario Odyssey) of Pokémon, then I’ve lost all faith that GF can create a quality title on consoles within their current release structure
