They are bringing a new generation of Pokémon for next year. Let's Go is more of a side series than a mainline (despite it playing similar to one).

The problem is that GameFreak tried to advertize it like a mainline game, probably to try to get more sales, that's why people react negatively as they don't want main games to become like Let's Go. It may replace the remakes like ORAS however.

Right after they announced this, they said that there was a new mainline game coming soon.

Forget the terms mainline and side game or whatever.  How did the advertisement of this game in any way mislead people to think it was something other than what it was?
