This is really interesting, and matches social engagement & Serebii analytics. It seems people are for more interested in Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl and not Legends Arceus, at least at this time. Ratings always get higher as we get closer to release, but it's so odd https://twitter.com/NinEverything/status/1381454787263143936

I do wonder if desire for a big open world Pokémon game is just part of a big echo chamber for the online core gaming community, which doesn't reach the general populace, much like Metroid games and backwards compatibility, both of which don't do big numbers.

Guess we'll see.

Of course as we get closer and learn more I can see desire rising, these are just curious analytics and statistics I have been seeing again and again since reveal. It's so fascinating.
