We fans certainly do put up with Gamefreak's silly decisions for the most part, but I think 151 Pokemon only is too grievous an offense to be shrugged off by the majority.

You'd need to see how the game is executed first as I can see it being fine if the game is significantly rebooted from older games.

Well a reboot I think would not go down well.  

However, yes, if this 151 thing is true but the game is a glorious current gen Pokemon that looks as good as Breath of the Wild, Super Mario Odyssey, or at least Xenoblade 2 technically than yeah, thry could probably sell that as the game being used to build the technology needed for Pokemon's HD future.  But if it's less than that, then it won't fly.  People will want a good reason for the cut roster besides nostalgia.  And they will want to know it's coming back.
