>>55193725pokemon had shitty subpar spritework, and it took till 2010 to have semi-animated spritework.
Instead of cranking out 100+ mons a gen, put out only a couple that are useful, well designed and interesting!!!!! We could have had an animated title as early as gen 3 if we had a smaller roster. What's the point of having 150 pokemon if only 20 (being generous) evolution lines were worth a damn?
