You don't make money by spending money unless ABSOLUTELY necessary, and the more you can avoid spending, the more you can ultimately make.
The fact is, as long as people keep buying it (which they will, Pokemon sells off of brand recognition alone), Pokemon will continue to degrade to see just how many corners they can cut, how badly they can abuse Nintendo's hardware with poor optimization and shitty engines, and how much they don't have to actually make a game.
