As a gen One'er, i will always have a soft spot for 2d, but i don't think the 3d games are as horrible as most say (except SwSh).

I do think an embrace of other styles of game,from art style like the 2.5d game Octopath Traveler or game play with the mystery dungeon, Ranger series along with Pokemon Conquest , would help breath new life into the series but that just goes back to what you've pointed to as the real issue; Rushed and Cynical games.

I would love to see the mainline games experiment more with different artstyles. Like you said, it would make the games feel new and visually exciting again. But yeah, I don't know how that's going to happen with the current release schedule.
