Nintendo should buy out TPC at the first possible opportunity, and just upend the bucket on the whole franchise. Get Game Freak out, go deep on a proper next-gen Pokemon experience, and cash in like only a properly ambitious sequel can.
It'll never happen.
LOL...the ol' grass is greener fallacy.
i think the breakdown is even split 3-ways between Nintendo, Gamefreak and The Pokemon Company.
so technically POkemon isnt even a first party Nintendo IP

Pokemon isn't Nintendo's IP to hand off to any developer they please.
I could come up with a pretty long list of devs I'd prefer to tackle the mainline series over Game Freak at this point.

The larger point is that it's not Nintendo's call to let IS make the next mainline Pokemon game. The closest IS ever came was a pitch to make a Pokemon x Fire Emblem crossover, but that got shot down because Pokemon Conquest came about.That won't happen because Gamefreak has leverage on the franchise and neither Nintendo or TPC are unsatisfied with Pokémon or how their partner is doing.
Copyright is divided between Nintendo, Gamefreak and Creatures. Trademark is owned by Nintendo. It's absolutely their IP even if divided with other companies and a brand manager like TPC.
X/Y campaign?, maybe but I freaking loved the MP during the X/Y era. Most people just look at the main campagin of pokemon games ignoring everything else (completing pokedex, breeding, post game challenges and MP)

They would give it to Team Ninja 🤢The production values would noticeably go up, they would try to satisfy both hardcore and casual fans, and the gameplay would evolve in interesting ways
would pre order without any gameplay footage tbh
We takin Pokémon Amie to its logical conclusion. The people need this.
Now this is a good idea they don't even have to go far, if they continue with the open Pokemon thing, i wouldn't mind Monolithsoft lending a hand 🖐Why IS of all studios? Lol
I could get behind GF partnering up with a bigger studio that is used to make more ambitious games, but not completely handing it over (specially not to a studio with such a different game profile). I think there are many things about the games and mechanics that would be lost without GF on the boat.
Different engines and art styles.Sword/Shield looks much better than 3 Houses visually though...
3 Houses does not scream "high production value" to me.

And they both have unnecessary rim lighting IMO.
Not so much a hot take but more of people increasingly becoming more annoyed by GF being so out of touch the last 6 years
If by people you mean a vocal minority then sure. Doesn't seem like the rest of the world agrees with this sentiment.Not so much a hot take but more of people increasingly becoming more annoyed by GF being so out of touch the last 6 years
No.
The Pokémon *Company* is jointly owned by Nintendo, Game Freak and Creatures. Game Freak own the same stake in TPC as Nintendo.
It's not Nintendo's IP. The IP is managed by TPC and de facto is Trademark controller and Nintendo does not control the trademark outside of their ownership of the property because of this.

Uh yeah?Don't lie about production value going up lol. Have you seen three houses.
You only want IS to get that so that you could marry your favorite pokemon. Mods please close this.
