with atleast a tiny bit of effort
Is this true?
No. Game Freak can still milk the shit out of the series for a solid 5-10 years before it fades into obscurity.

lol. If it didn't die in Gen 3 (when it faded hard), it's not going to die in 5-10 years.

This. It's not going no where. Our kids will be playing it.
2017: we get SM sequels
2018: project for new gamefreak hirees finishes in May. That means this will be a year with no Pokémon games.
2019: March-April-ish Gen 8 launches for the switch
2020: DP remakes
2021: Is the 25th anniversary. Pikachu's dex number is 25. We'll get a sole special anniversary Yellow remake
What comes after that lord knows but it will still be highkey relevant. Especially since GO brought a lot of players back
We'll get DP remakes and then Gen 8.

>SM took effort to make
Pokemon has crossed the generational gap. Once a franchise does that, it'll keep coming back in some form until Nintendo decides to kill it.
