Pokémon did not do the transition into 3D that well. It started out in gen 6 with Pokémon X/Y on the 3DS, funny enough. Sun and Moon also came out on the 3DS and it was better. I'd say gen 7 games are the best 3D Pokémon games to date after ORAS which are just 3D remakes of Ruby/Sapphire which came out on the GBA.
Pokémon Scarlet/Violet on the Switch is the first ever open world Pokémon game and it's a glitchy mess at times. Also just look at videos from it. It doesn't look anywhere as good as other open world games from its era or from even many years before like The Witcher III.
Gamefreak got really sloppy with Pokémon around XY/Gen 6 and I guess Nintendo must not have upped their budget or something. 3D games need a significantly higher budget than 2D ones do. Especially open world ones like Scarlet/Violet.
