Not anymore boomer. pokemon is about capturing since Go put your stupid series in the radar. And since Go the writing is more and more on the wall with every new game coming over it. Adapt or die.

It's not like PLA doesn't have any battles.

There are literally 18, counting post game. 23 if you count Ingo rematches. There are more trainers between pallet and cerulean than this

This is obvious common sense that everyone knows, especially given the series' long-time slogan, "Gotta Battle 'Em All".

If the game is about catching em all, why did Swsh cut the dex?

Were the technology there at the time of the Gameboy, Taijri would have made the game exclusively about catching Pokemon and exploring the world with next-to-no battles.
But it wasn't, so he needed to copy the JRPG template utilizing various contemporaries at the time to mold Pokemon into something satisfactory for the time.
Now we're here over 25 years later on Switch, the tech is there, the ideas are there, and it's clear between GO, LGPE and PLA that GameFreak wants to take away from focus on battles and bring the gameplay loop over to the process of exploration, discovery, capturing, and utilizing your caught critters to do things that aren't strictly related to battle or HM-esque.
