I'm not sure about that. I think what keeps people glued to the franchise is the fights, the possibility of social interaction with trading and its charming world, with different areas each gen and very well crafted. The lore... Maybe, I'm not sure, that's definitely not what's keeping me buying Pokémon since 20 years, but I can't speak for the vast majority.
