Honestly? I’d say they delay is prolly more the result of NSW lasting far longer than GF and Nintendo had anticipated. Hard to say though…my expectation is annual Pokémon will return once next gen starts (where by “annual Pokémon”, I mean DLC (Y2) -> Remake/Remaster (Y3) -> Mainline (Y4) -> DLC (Y5)>). They’ll have had multiple studios working on Pokémon for the past several years, doesn’t seem like this would be too big of a stretch. Though maybe Nintendo truly has successfully pressured them.
