Fair enough with them being small things relative to concept of remakes.True, but they're small changes/additions compared to the entire concept of the game/of a remake. I think that because they're clearly open to remaking games, and are open to a more casual style of play typified by Let's Go and Pokémon Go itself, I doubt they'll stop there - I think we'll get Johto versions. Plus, Pikachu and Eevee sold well, and Junichi Masuda spoke about there being more games in the series if the Kanto versions were well received, so...
The question is, did LGPE really sell well enough? They went down decently but last I recall Japan specific sales weren't noteable, certainly compared to a few other Switch titles (when considering how Pokemon typically does on a system - has multiple entries in the top 10 I wager for the 3DS software list). If Sword and Shield blow them out of the water, they may think twice about a Let's Go styled remake... depending on the amount of effort required and their other projects (e.g. Town).
