'Drop'... As in when do you think Pokémon will run out of ideas and either stop making games or people will stop buying the games? I think that in the next 1-2 generations, some of the fanbase will drop off and Game Freak will be left making repeats of the same game to the remaining audience.

"As long as the money continues coming" is the only answer to all three questions, and that will be for a very, very long time still.

This is the correct answer - the only correct answer. Others will be here shortly to try and tell you differently, like "they've already run out of ideas" and "they will stop making games next/in two generation(s)" and "people have already stopped buying the games". None of these answers are accurate; they're just the noise that starts playing every time this question is asked.

Which is a flawed notion, because for every fan who "drops off", there are no shortage of new, young fans to "drop in", as it were. People are a renewable resource. There will always be more. If this were ever going to be a large-scale problem, it would have been the case a decade ago.
