I think it would have been better. What do you think?

I've seen this suggested quite a few times, & I say absolutely. Truth is that Gamefreak as a developer, has never mastered the art of 3D game development; just compare their attempts at it between Sw/Sh & S/V, with their amazing sprite work on a game like Giga Wrecker. This isn't an unusual problem among certain Japanese developers, either. For example, Atlus, Intelligent Systems, & Nippon Ichi weren't very good at it, either. The difference is that Atlus & IS have managed to improve -just compare Fire Emblem Engage & Persona 5 to their previous stuff graphically- while other such as Nippon Ichi & Gamefreak have not; seriously, there's no reason for a game like Disgaea 6 to have performance issues, when Switch manages games like FE Engage & Zelda.

these screenshots both look real ugly, as does the video

though I do sort of thing pokemon shouldn't have gone 3D either, since they clearly struggled with that

Kids today, a significant audience, would complain about the lack of 3D, unfortunately.

A hand drawn look could work. HD2D works for Octopath, but I'm not super into the pics in the OP.

Gamefreak makes enough money to give people fancy graphics.
