Yeah, anger in the fandom have been boiling for a long time. I think it was Gen 5 where the anger started to grow. Gradually over time with each game after game, gen after gen. But I think what finally caused the lid to fly off was the Dexit thing. The Boldure that finally bodyslammed the Numel's back, and it's just about to get messy from here on out unless GF change their game for the better. Perhaps with the Gen 4 Remake, but that remains to be seen.
Yeah, it's ever since Smartphones came into being that Consoles have finally gotten themselves some competition, especially when Microtransactions became more and more of a thing. When I saw Pokemon Masters revealed in May, that made me worried for the direction TPCi is going to go. Although generous of unlocking characters via story rather than spending money, it's also the lack of showcasing any new info for a long stretch of time compared with Sun and Moon. Yes they did got carried away, it did give us the hype for the new games to come out. SwSh on the otherhand is like a desert so far. Perhaps because the company is trying to market more on their other stuff like Detective Pikachu, Mewtwo Strikes Back Evolution and Pokemon Masters. Plus there isn't much hype nor advertisements in the movies nor anime (as of yet), as if SwSh is some sort of reboot to the entire series or something. This is bad marketing that is just lacking, at least the past 7 Gens market them well.
