Speculation that Pokemon Sword and Shield were Now why the Gen 8 games might have been developed for the 3DS in mind is cause the intended to be Nintendo 3DS Games. Pokemon's CEO Tsunekazu Ishihara was sure the Nintendo Switch was gonna fail in the market. And why develop a bigger game towards a console the company though NINTENSO SWITCH The Box art was gonna fail. Pel 'sCEOd & te N tea What we know of Gen 8 TukAM SHIELP Something that was odd and recieved some level of critizim from the start were the box artwith people expression how boring they felt. With #PokemonQuest and PokemontetsGo here are so many new ways to explore the world of Pokemon! Trainers can look forwandi The Double pack uses the same box art as the Switch case, but in this Box the art is devided in two square patterns similiar to the 3DS Bax case, it ends up looking more fitting. We first learned of Gen 8 not long after the announcement of the Pokemon Let's Go titles This announcement came quickly atfte the dissapointment of fans who were expecting a core Pokemon RPG for the console. even more with an all-new core series Pokémon RPG title in development for the second half of 2019 When asked wether the 2019 title was gonna be released for the Nintendo Switch or the 3DS, the spokesperson declined to answer Nw tle aming in 2019 The Let's Go games were made with the Switch hardware Now this is weird considering the Let's Go Games are aimed for the new console in mind and as such the box art were made with the switch in mind, plus looking a lot better than the Pokemon Sword and Shield Box art. Pokemon Sword and Shield Director, Shigeru Ohmori stated that Pokemon Sword and Shield raid battles were being developed Development of the Core RPG with Pokemon Go's raid battle. This will put the games development before June of 2017. This was before the Nintendo Switch was a success. Which means that during the development the Pokemon Company was certain the Nintendo Switch was gonna fail in the market During Nintendo's E3 of 2017 Pokemon Director, Tsunekazu Ishihara announced that Gamefreak GEN 8(201) started developing a core RPG Pokemon Game. XY (2013) Now was this game being developed for the switch, was it Let's Go, or Gen 8 Pokemon Sword and Shield? During the games first trailer it was also noticeable that the games were using the same models made by Creatures.inc for the 3DS games P gn deping acoP Later trailers made it more obvious that models are using animations found in the 3DS games. NPCS can also be seeing using the same grid walk as in the 3DS games. Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachul and Eeveel are Coe While fans consider the Let's Go Games a side game GameFreak treats it as a core game. Pokémon Tiles' States Games Director This is just scartching the surface of what we can assume are just re-used elements from the 3DS games. There's also the re-used pokemon battle animations, and the walking cycle of all the Pokemon which could be found in the Sun and Moon games data. As said above the Let's Go Games were created with the Switch in mind, taking use of the hardwares gyro controls and joycons. It was also used as a bundle to sell more Switch Units A reason why the Switch games may be looking poor is that it was optimized originally for the 3DS console. During the time Gen 8 was being developed The Pokemon Company might have changed plans to change the game from 30S hardware to the Switch console. This will put more strain on the team to make a better game while also making it harder for them to pass the assests to a newer hardware. Meanwhile a bundle was announced for Pokemon Conclusion Sword and Shield. This bundle is for the new Nintendo- hardware the Switch Lite. A dedicated handheld While all this is just speculation, this does not excuse gamefreak for cutting pokemon in future games Their plan going forward is to have a limited roster in all future games, meanwhile all they have showing for it is re-used assets from past games and a new mechanic, that going by Mega Evolutions and Z-Moves unit that has none of the features present in the original console, it's just a handheld device. would not be brought in Next Generation games. Pokemon as a gaming franchise needs time to develop, making the games a yearly release will only give fans a subpar game that won't have life past it's launch.

In case you were holding out: hope, dashed. Speaking to Inside Gamer, Pokemon boss Junichi Masuda re-confirmed that yes, there are no plans to add the National Pokedex into Sword and Shield. Although there were some "maybes" thrown out since the news came back in June at E3, Game Freak is now sticking to their guns and eliminating the prospect altogether. Masuda states: "We now have no plans to make the Pokemon that are missing in the Galar Pokedex in- game available. That is an approach that we want to continue with Pokemon games in the future. Of course, up to now it has not been possible to encounter every Pokemon in every game, so people had to transfer it from old games via Pokemon Bank to the new game, for example."

IIRC Game Freak also started developing Sword and Shield immediately after Sun and Moon's release, which makes it even more plausible that they expected it to be a 3DS title rather than a Switch one.

If this truly is the case, that actually makes the situation a lot worse, as it means they had some horrible forethought and faced the consequences of combining it with a multibillion-dollar franchise that requires multiple stuff to come out in a specific timeframe. Meaning that this is a greater fuck-up than anyone could've imagined. At the very least it explains a lot of its faults, but at the same time it shows that Game Freak has seriously lost their grip on how to maintain the gaming facet of the Pokemon franchise.

Ideally, for Gen IX they should be able to learn from these mistakes to prevent a similar catastrophe, but I wouldn't expect it to change the quality of the games themselves given that this is Game Freak we're talking about.
