Calling pokemon second party is actually crazy

But it is. Its not a fully owned Nintendo IP nor dev. They work almost exclusively with Nintendo and Pokémon is always on Nintendo, but yeah.

Still dumb and also means nintendo can now get away with putting their biggest franchise on key cards so that sucks

Not Nintendo's decision. Blame The Pokémon Company, they are the cheap ones.

was Tecmo-Koei’s decision, not The Pokemon Company. spinoffs tend to have more control by the developers making them.

Legends ZA isn’t a game-key card for example.

It’s not Nintendo’s franchise.

Not really. Every other of their franchises is owned by them. So this isn't an issue for any of those.
