Pokémon used to be my favorite franchise by far, but not anymore. However, unlike you with Zelda, I still like the new Pokémon games and I've played every mainline game since Platinum (I'll probably skip Ultra Sun and Moon though). I just don't like them as much anymore as I used to, and there are other games now that I like better.

I think I'm just growing out of it, the games are becoming too easy and simplistic for me. They seem to have lost some of their magic.

Totally agree with Pokémon. I love the games, but have been slowly losing interest in them. There's definitely some "magic" lost in there to me as well.

Pokemon

Always will be a solid series, but every game after Heartgold/Soulsilver made me feel like they can add more. I had so many hours in Soulsilver because of everything you can do.

While Ultramoon probably won't do much to change my mind, I hope the Switch-only eighth gen gets the BotW treatment . I wouldn't mind if the next games were pushed to 2019. Anything to improve the series would be appreciated.

I think the problem with the newer Pokémon games is that they really lack scope. Hopefully when Switch gets a Pokémon game it will feel more expansive and bring me back full-time to the series.
