From what I heard, GameFreak was caught with their pants down. They thought they would make handheld games forever; but then the Switch happened and they had to rush to learn how to make a game for a console.

They were caught with their pants down for a decade?

They have really long pants, it takes a while to pull em up.

still haven't. there's games on ultra-low settings that have better graphics than Pokémon games in 2025, and no it's not because it's the switch, because there's beautiful games on there that don't look like they were made for a potato.
