People are expecting higher and higher fidelity model and full backwards compatibility. This means that each gen Gamefreak had to spend more and more resources on ensuring backwards compatibility for more and more Pokemons, moves, gimmicks. rather than focusing on new area and new mons. The math is not math'ing. This model is not sustainable.

Yeah that's why SWSH, SV, PLA are the epitome of quality, because they cut the dex.

The point is not about those games, it is about a theoretical point when there is just too many Pokemon. They're ripping off the bandaid early.
It's not like Gens 5, 6 and 7 weren't as bad if not even worse than anything you mentioned despite having the full dex for the time.

no one cares about that, the models are fine as they are
>full backwards compatibility.
huh what does that have to so with bringing pokemon forward?
>This means that each gen Gamefreak had to spend more and more resources on ensuring backwards compatibility for more and more Pokemons, moves, gimmicks. rather than focusing on new area and new mons
except in the games with Dexit have had the most barren areas so dexit clearly isn't even helping
>The math is not math'ing.
math isn't a verb
>This model is not sustainable.
hire more people. stop making unnecessarily changes, and if at a point the amount of pokemon truly becomes too much, just have Home be an actual Home were pokemon can hve an active role and do battles and minigames, instead of having it be the prision it is now.

Why didn't they find a better and more sustainable way of continuing the series instead of just adding new Pokemon and repeating the same shit every generation?

1. Pokemon is the highest grossing media franchise of all time.
2. Game Freak doesn't ever up the quality, so there's no reason to not include every Pokemon
3. Pokemon has been using the same models since 2013 with some minor adjustments to a small handful of Pokemon. Porting over the same data you've been using for the past 10 years isn't difficult.
4. No one said all the Pokemon have to be available from launch. Since Gen 3, it's been rather difficult to obtain most of the Pokemon until transfer compatibility was added later on.
5. Even if it took an insane 30 hours to model and animate every Pokemon, it'd only take 750 weeks of work for every Pokemon to get new models and animations. With a development time of a year, you'd only need... 2 modelers and animators to port every Pokemon.

People bitch about the dex because they could understand that the games sucked because they had a lot of pokemon. Now they don't even have that excuse anymore. They simply don't give a fuck and sell us trash. That's the whole point.

You're right, maybe game freak shouldn't have been retarded and used that for their excuse why they decided to be lazy. They should have just been honest.

Most of their revenue is not tied to the game. It is tied to merchs, TCGs, toys. The merchs, TCGs and toys are better than ever. Kids these days watch snippets of anime from TikTok/youtube shorts. My nephew know about Captain Pikachu without playing a single pokemon game because he's 5 and still cannot read, but he collects a lot of TCG cards and have pokemon toys

GameFreak will get there 20 years from now, they might even have actual Switch tier graphics by then.

I gave up with the games and bought plushies instead of my favorites. I will soon have all the ones I like and be finally free of this franchise forever.

If they release Pokemon game every year, the technical debt is going to mount even bigger rather than being alleviated

And that's why Pokemon is so bad these days. More focus on the merch than on the games.

Without looking any of this up
Gamefreak have their own edited engine thuss yes their models can easily be reused or ported forward, BDSP used unity look at the problem that brought when trying to keep it compatible, look how long it took GO to get transfers, unity.

The models are awful and ugly. Proportions all fucked up, everything is fat and rounded. A huge portion of models need serious reworking
