Why are people obsesses with the idea of a Pokemon MMO? The series was in its prime on the original Game Boy, when online play was nonexistent and link cables were mandatory. The traditional MMORPG has been declining since 2010 or so, and the MOBA genre is a terrible fit for the main Pokemon series. And Game Freak is not exactly renowned for their size or programming prowess. How do you expect a medium sized developer that only made the polygonal jump a few years ago to make a thriving MMO?

No, it was in its prime on the DS, when online was first introduced.
That's besides the point, though. Pokemon should never try to be an MMO.

I think he was talking in terns of sales/popularity where Pokémon Gen 1 sold over 30 million
