I'd have to assume it's like in racing games where they still use models from games 20 years prior and just update them with better texturing and the models benefitting from an improved lighting engine in-game. Forza Motorsport 8 got exposed for recycling car models from Forza 1 for the original Xbox, and given how lazy Game Freak usually is I'd bet there's still plenty of models being carried over from Gen 6How do they even churn these games out anymore? Last I checked there were 800+ pokemans, each with its own high polygon count model and moveset and animations that have to be made. It only gets harder every generation, almost exponentially. New hardware which means the old models have to be updated or scrapped, new moves, I don't get it
