No, realistic pokemon would actually be pretty fucking creepy. Besides it's a pretty simple game

A mobile game needs to be simple.

We all know photorealistic graphics are everything

No. Photorealistic graphics are boring.

The casual gamers who made Pokemon Go so popular do not care about graphics. They are the type of gamers who played Flappy Bird and loved it despite not having the best graphics.

This.

There are higher priorities for mobile games as running better on their hardware and non-complex easy-to-pick-up gameplay.

With more functionality/mechanics, it would be better. Graphics/AR are the least of its issues.

Strange, because my phone runs it even with only one GB of RAM.

That's what the discription says at Google Play (for Android then):
- Compatible with Android devices that have 2GB RAM or more and have Android Version 4.4 - 6.0 installed.

That's why it's strange. I physically only have one GB of RAM, yet it still runs.
