Dude, it's almost impossible to make a pokemon game every month. I mean, you have to go through all the translating, glitches, and they probably have to add new pokemon with a new pokemon game.

Is it getting cOLD in here? Seriously do you know how much time it takes to make a new Pokemon game or any game for that matter. A simple tic tac toe Javascript game takes about 1-2 days. If you can make one every month. Somebody might buy a copy.

Not to mention apart from the impossibly short development time that would leave you also have to package, transport and market the games which would result flooding the market with a new Pokémon game every month thus diluting the franchise. Video games (and other products) aren't just released once they're complete. Timing the release to maximise sales and coverage is crucial, sufficient time must be given to allow the previous game a good shelf life and research must be done as to what the market is like at the time of release, such as timing the release to coincide with a holiday such as Christmas and if it will be going up against any other blockbuster games.

No, sometimes they're released before they're complete.

Ok, here's how the industry work. Somebody has an idea for a game, and get a developer to make it. The developer take it to a publisher and if the publisher like it, they finance the game. Usually around this point, a release date is made for the game. the game has to be released on that date (or there's trouble and less money for the developer). the developers go away and make the game for that date.

Same process is done for movies.

Now, here's a little fact. Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training took 90days to make, that's 3 months. Brain Training is a far more simple game than Pokemon... which is why the original pokemon game took 6 years to make. Game every month? Look at easy web based stuff... not console stuff
