Nah, there's tons of shit they didn't bother bringing over here.
-First off is Pokémon Green.
-Then there's Pokémon Stadium. Non-Japan regions got Stadiums 2 and 3 renumbered as 1 and 2 since the original Stadium was a shitpile that either only had 40 playable pokemon or 40 rentable pokemon, I forget which.
-Then there's the second pokemon TCG game for the Game Boy Color, which is actually supposed to be pretty good and has an English translation patch for the rom.
Modern times have had more exclusives, but of a smaller nature.
-Wiiware had three Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games in 2009 that were apparently really small and mediocre compared to the full-scale releases.
-Learn with Pokémon: Typing Adventure had a 2011 release in Japan and 2012 in Europe but didn't get to America. It's exactly what it sounds like and is mostly notable for this badass piece of boss music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjtl6MY7UEo
-Pokémon Card Game: How To Play DS was a 2011 glorified accessory that came with a TCG card set. It has a rulebook, interactive tutorial, and lets you use three predetermined decks against six opponents.
-There are also arcade games for those collectable Battrio and Tretta tchotchkes, and a 3DS game called Pokémon Tretta Lab that's more like a toy pokedex than anything else.
-Some small 3ds eshop free minigame called The Band of Thieves & 1000 Pokémon meant to help promote the Diancie movie in Japan.
-That Pokémon Comaster smartphone game that just came out a couple months ago. Has some nice original pokegirls (pic related) but is brutally pay2win even compared to mobile Shuffle.

...Gahd dammit. The europoors got that while we were stuck over here with fucking Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing.
...It'd be a couple years late anyways, but the sentiment remains the same.

until Danny Devito gets hired there's no point

Well from the ending of the game it seems it will be episodic, meaning we probably won't see a release of it in the West until the game itself is fully finished. However it's been a few months now since the game released and so far there isn't any word of another episode for it releasing soon.

Danny DeVito is a meme hire though, if you expect them to actually do that you're stupid as fuck
