@PikminMarioKirby You do realize that Legends ZA is not made by any of the people involved with Sword/Shield or Scarlet/Violet, right? It's a completely separate group. The people put on SV are the division of GameFreak that nutoriously dislikes Pokemon. That's why X and Y were so unbearably bad, NOBODY wanted to make them but when they blew their entire bi-yearly budget on their passion projects all they all bombed anyways, they were forced to rush through Gen 6 last second. They were also bummed because Gen 5 (their most passionate pokemon project of the 2D era) were by far the worst received games they had put out in years.
The Legends team was compiled after the original Sun/Moon release, meant to gather GameFreak's most passionate devs to create a side series that prioritizes Gameplay over Marketability, and Long term fans over Children. Their first project was Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon, known for being by far the most polished and fleshed out of the 3D games.
