The 3DS models / assets are unusable.

If Nintendo / Game Freak wants to have anything resembling a quality product, everything will need to be redone.
Animations.
Models.
Textures.
Sounds.
AI.
Nothing in the 3DS titles is even close to being adequate for a console release.

Well you might think so but it remains to be seen if Nintendo does or not. If the game truely does release this year I would be very surprised if it's truely made from the ground up.

Yeah, I know some consider Game Freak lazy (even though I don't really see it), but I don't think they would be that lazy to just porting all 3DS assets into HD and call it a day.

I did say to update them if they weren't already HD models but downscaled.
