im not counting spinoffs, since gamfreak had nothing to do with any of the games released in 2015 and we are talking about them
its like saying mario is a yearly rrlease franchise, you know thats not what we are talking about.

Even if you just count the core franchise, there have only been four or five years in Pokemon's almost 25-year history when nothing came out. The idea that "now" it' s a yearly release based on the trend of the past 4 years when it's pretty much always been a yearly thing is silly especially since the "gap years" were home to other major releases related to the core franchise (like Pokemon Stadium 2 in 2001) rather than completely unrelated spinoffs (like Dash or the TCG game)

And keep in mind that the production schedule has likely been toned down at times *because* some of the spinoffs were released.
