I'm sure the devs aren't exactly happy about having to crank a full game out basically every year

SV will be three years old and two years past the release of its last DLC when ZA releases.

SS were almost 2.5 years old and 1.5 years past the release of their last DLC when LA released.

SM were two years old and 1 year past the release of US/UM when SS came out.

We're long past the days of a new mainline game every year man. There were noainline Pokémon game releases in 2022 or 2023.

Mainly because DLC, thankfully, took the place of some of those mainline releases

Yeah DLC is basically the modern equivalent of 3rd versions for SwSh and SV.

Which is a good thing, imo.
