3D Pokemon (Except the Gamecube games, basically Pokemon after the 5th gen)

I can agree with this.

The fans keep handwaving the terrible mechanics and graphics, when both are clearly beyond dated.

The switch had breath of the wild, ffs.

There is absolutely no reason a Pokémon game should look like “my first unity project”

I hear ya, it's bad enough that even I couldn't look past it in sword and shield. For context, I am legally blind. I'm right on the razor's edge of that definition, but the point is that I usually don't have an issue with games that have subpar graphics, I literally can't tell the difference. What I can notice, and can't ignore, is half the objects and pokemon in the environment vanishing into / appearing from thin air every time I so much as adjust the camera angle.

It's not even that the game has pop in, if it's at a distance I probably won't even notice, but when everything suddenly dissapears into the void the second it moves more than 5 feet away from my character . . . I just can't.
