>>48656186>Why did they rob us like this...Because Nintendo don't really give a shit about Pokemon in terms of quality because it isn't actually technically a 100% Nintendo property, thus they see it more as a cash cow.
Gamefreak are lazy as fuck devs who I would suspect, very much reigned in ILCA from doing anything at least sort of impressive with the game, making them work within very strict parameters. (ILCA have worked on actual good JRPGs like Nier Automata and DQXI so aren't all shit).
If Nintendo 100% owned Pokemon, there is no fucking way in hell you would see Pokemon shit out with the states or presentation it's done in. I suspect you would have seen someone like Next Level or a new much larger Pokemon focused studio been given the development of a mainline Pokemon games, a long way back.
