The real reason for Game Freak's choice of visuals.

Your "real reason" is not only just your made up idea and nothing officially said from Game Freak, it's also contradictory to reasoning Game Freak gave which acknowledged the Switch's superior hardware and that they need to increase quality. "could this have been a massive oversight on console gamer's part?" Perhaps I misunderstood but this sounds like it's our fault for expecting a $60 Switch game to look like a $60 Switch game.

There is such a thing as objective value and standards, consumers can of course choose to buy products regardless of such in favor of personal preference, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. That Pokemon Sw/Sh has 435 Pokemon at $60 while Pokemon Su/Mo has 800 for $40 is real. That the game has textures and animations you'd commonly find on the N64 is truth. That the developers lied about their reasons behind cutting content is proven. You can buy the game despite it's issues and that's fine, I only look down on those who defend the game by denying such facts about it while insulting people.

Never said issues do not exist, I was talking about the graphical aspects alone and how battery life seems to be much higher because of it.  You have a right to be upset about something and not buy it for whatever reason, but despite your claims you seem to look down on anyone who buys the game and enjoys it TBH.  I have never insulted anyone here, so try reading it again.  Hell I even said this thread had nothing to do with other flaws, but you insist on trying to insert them in every discussion you can.

The point I am making is that maybe developers who have always made handheld titles will bring the SAME SCALE products over to the Switch because the Switch is both a Handheld and a console.  Just because it is on Switch does not mean that they will all of a sudden make the games console scale experiences.  Will they make improvements here and there?  Sure they will, but I would not get my hopes up too high.

As for your pricing complaint, talk to the publisher Nintendo.  Game Freak had nothing to do with the pricing.  Last I checked, that was a publisher thing.

Your second paragraph could be right, but because GameFreak has a history of leaving good features behind because it will increase their load every gen then justify (or flat out lie) with comments like, "We want every to feel like your first". Yea ... I bet they do. 

Its a hard pill to swallow coming from GameFreak.
