Because Pokemon is unstoppable. Pokemon isn't just games. It is TV shows, movies, toys and trading cards. All of this combines into one large picture from which the every single product of the brand can benefit.
Genshin Impact is unironically the best Pokemon game to come out in years. It's what Pokémon should be like (bar the Gacha elements). If anything Genshin reminds me more of Pokemon than it does Breath of the Wild.
Games are just a side thing for Pokemon. Merch makes way more money. People trying yo make the games their focus fail, but you can't sell merch of literal whos
Because the Pokémon are adores by many, everyone has a favorite and the cultural relevancy of Pokémon will keep people endeared to the franchise even if they don't buy any more games
>Is pokemon clover fun
Very much so, it has a surprisingly extensive world with tons of unique npc's
Pokemon are all interesting to use with various niches available to the player
And it is challenging, without being kaizo bs
also some immensely useful QOL things like infinite use TM's (note the increase difficulty thing, proper movesets are a must), HM's that don't need a move deleter, consumable held items are not permanently consumed during important battles, easy switching between abilities and hidden abilities and a bunch more stuff
also music is entirely original and of surprisingly high quality again
overall it's unique in how polished it is, only 2 areas in the game feel incomplete and they're not critical
There has been a lot of competition to Pokémon but in the end it doesn't matter because kids want the yellow rat to the point Pokémon itself created more yellow rat
>more profitable
Sadly, no gacha has been able to even emulate Pokémon profits >less effort
Not true anymore, maybe it was five years ago but now gachas have better graphics than some PS4 games. The only thing that gachas don't have is good gameplay but everything else is done
because Pokemon games are the best, nothing compares to them.
Raising your pokemon
collecting HMs
defeating gym leaders
none of the pretenders could stand against it.
They either copy Pokemon wholesale, don't get the designs right, or are for a different audience in the case of SMT
100x this.
How many times are we gonna reach bump limit with the same question that gets answered every time?

Someone made a competing game, TroonTroon or something.

well its a game about internet culture so there maybe a lot of stuff you will not get or find funny

Bad desing or you can't transfer to the next game
These days they just make collecting games into Gachas, much more profitable and less effort required.

One of the reason why every pokemon Clone fails is that there's no Pikachu in it.
We keep telling you that making monster collecting games that are similar to Gamefreak's is hard and expensive but y'all don't listen.
