I'm not sure we could've gotten a polished game even if they pulled a Unova and only put new Pokmon in the dex.

I'm inclined to agree here. I don't think the issue is that Game Freak still has too many Pokemon, items, moves, etc. to put in the game. I think the issue is that the company is operated by risk-adverse Luddites.

For three generations now, GF has demonstrated that they... as Mallory Archer would say, "can't or won't" properly adapt to the 3D landscape. At this point, I don't see that happening unless they bring in fresh blood, and lots of it, or partner with another company.

Until one of those happens, we're just going to keep getting games that are reasonably fun for a time because the Pokemon formula is that damn good, but never rise above the level of reheated leftovers. Games like Sword and Shield.
