I've completed the games main storyline and the Team Rainbow Rocket arc. For a full-price game, I believe we have essentially been given DLC content at best. They've essentially added four new pokémon and Team Rainbow Rocket and called it a new game.
I came across an article that explains this in a little more detail and I think it's the most honest so far: Does Pokémon Need Third Installments to Each Generation?
It goes into detail about the third installments in general but it's a good read. I do think third installments have become a bit of a cash cow for Game Freak, and therefore a ripoff for us consumers. Sun and Moon were fantastic games, but buying the same game again this year is a waste of money.
I hope when Pokémon goes onto the Switch they don't just stop the third installment but don't release two games at once as well. I think now that the link cable has gone, and that the Switch is more designed towards a home console than a portable console, the concept of going outside and trading is gone. Let me know your thoughts.
