Pokemon on PS? So why don't you ask for Mario, Zelda, Animal Crossing, Fire Emblem, Xenoblade, Super Smash Bros, Metroid and all Nintendo first party games on PS also? In 2020, how can you so sure the battery will remain the same? Xavier is this year, 2020 mean 3 years later, the cost will be the same? Just like you are so sure next ps portable will run all ps4/5 games which cost only $250 and last 4-5 hours in 2019 - 2020, why can't i predict Nintendo will release a new Switch at that time? All Nintendo handheld before have upgrade model like GB to GBC, GBA to GBA SP , DS to DSi , 3DS to New 3DS, why won't Switch?

Nin may own certain specific parts of Pokemon, but they only own 33% of the franchise overall. If a PS hybrid took the majority of the handheld/hybrid market share, Pokemon would suffer if it didn't at the very least sell on PS devices, if not only PS devices. You can predict all you want but if a PS Portable can't exist because there isn't enough evidence at this point in time, then neither can an upgraded or next gen Switch. Just because the hardware exists doesn't mean either company will be able to properly customize it, harness it, or use it any time soon, if at all.

Except Nintendo own the game name, trademarks and all Pokemon in the series. GF can make a game for PS if they want but can't name it Pokemon or have any Pokemon in the series or else, they will be sued. History with all Nintendo handheld upgrade models is meaningless , right? And New 3DS is at least 3 times stronger than 3ds, GBC, GBA SP both is 2 times stronger than the original, DSi is ~ 2,5 times stronger than DS. You think Switch won't? Pokemon suffer like GameCube/PS2 era, right? You want a Pokemon on ps, basically that is port begging and show you want Nintendo go third party, isn't it?
