No. Because while it is not a solid argument by itself, it is still a very good point.
For example, Game Freak has not just suddenly completely abandoned Nintendo consoles entirely before, even when they were not fond of choices Nintendo made. I think we can all agree this is a good reason to consider GF may decide to develop for the Switch. In fact, it's pretty much half of the basis of the argument in favor of GF developing for the Switch).
GF has also not abandoned Pokemon before just because they were not necessarily fond of the console options. This is the other half of the basis for the aforementioned argument.
Choosing to say it is not a good argument negates the majority of the support for Pokemon games on the Switch as having any validity.
That's because Gamefreak can't abandon Nintendo. Don't forget that Nintendo owns just as much of Pokémon as Gamefreak does. There is going to be something in the contract that only allows Pokémon games to be created for Nintendo consoles. Also, do you even have to wonder why Gamefreak wouldn't ban Pokémon?
The argument is most certainly not a good argument to make. There is a first time for everything, and Gamefreak have already proven time and time again that they are very capable and willing to do things they have never done before.
