Game Freak will only bring Pokémon to mobile if it solves a 'problem'

It sells on future promise of Pokemon. It would be foolish to think otherwise.

though that is true, the people who bought a 3ds prior of XY announcement or even during 2013 most likely bought it for another game or two.

If XY wasnt released yet or any pokemon main game, 3DS would still be over 40mil now.

I am one of those people that bought it in early 2013 ready for Pokemon and while I did get other games (MK7 and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon) I can safely say I wouldn't have bought it at all if it wasn't for the upcoming Pokemon XY. I'm sure there are many more that wouldn't have bought it at all without Pokemon either.

which i agree with but not enough to make 3ds (or any hh) to decline as badly as you say. What 1mil? 2mil? 5mil tops? Its not the wiiu/vita with an install base of undr 10mil.

Like i said previously, it would definitely have an impact in HW sales, but not a decline as bad as some think
