Maybe you should go back and read previous posts.

His post was clearly about people thinking Pokemon will be some ridiculous system seller the likes of which have never been seen before. It will be a system seller, no doubt. But it was a system seller for every single Nintendo handheld so far. It's been seen plenty of times before and there's no reason to treat it like it's suddenly going to be a much bigger system seller for the Switch than it has been for Nintendo's handhelds.

Pretty much this ... 

His argument that Pokemon will grow to become a bigger franchise with the technical advances from the 3DS to the Switch falls flat when we consider a prior example of Pokemon advancing to the 3DS from the DS experiencing a decline in the franchise instead of growth despite the fact that Gen 6 made a leap to nearly full 3D polygonal models in it's assets ...

Except the 3DS games did see growth X/Y outsold both B/W and B/W2 as have S/M and ORAS LT likely will as well with digital.
