But yes I wouldnt mind if they slowed down with Pokemon releases.

This has nothing to do with why it's popular. If anything, it limits the audience of the game. Series is loved because it's very polished, has a great cast and story, and has a lot of content. That + decently made adaptations help broaden the net.

While the game is great for the reasons you listed I still believe the waify mechanic made it much more popular. Much like Fire Emblem Awakening.
Dont get me wrong I have been a fan of Fire Emblem since I first heard about it in Smash Bros Melee but it is rather miraculous that the 3DS version sold a staggering amount more than any predecessor.

Awakening sold more because it was the first Fire Emblem to have a developed story and cast of characters. It has more mainstream RPG qualities and wasn't as strict of a SRPG. That + it's higher than normal production values are what brought it out to the forefront.
