why cant we get a more adult version of the Anime ?
There were so many cool characters introduced like Tobias, Paul, it would be so much better to watch their adventure than to see how Ash doesn't evolve his OP Pokémon's. Sinnoh league build up a good story line and then it went back to being for Kids from then on.

Because Pokémon is a kids' show? They make most of their money from merchandise and toys, so they get more money from making the show for kids.
If you want something more mature, you can watch the other anime like Evolutions, or you can even read the comics (Pokémon Adventures for example) or even fanmade stuff. But the main series wouldn't profit much from being aimed at an older audience.

@pio12prithvi You forget about Pokemon anime XY, the non english dub version.

If you mean "adult" like "covering similar content to the games like bullying, grief, price of fame, loss of youth, zealous folly, cults, war crimes, child and animal abuse, and so on, that would be very interesting and I think other animes for the same age group have shown that it could be done pretty well.
If, on the other hand, you mean "adult" like swearing and violence and stuff, that's not gonna happen and you need to face facts.

@UnovanZorua Having a show be "for kids" doesn't mean it can't introduce things that adults could be interested in or have meaningful development in its characters.
Just look at shows like Avatar: The Last Airbender or Gravity Falls.

I am in my teens and I still like Pokémon. I binged every episode of the pokemon anime and have 15 full binders of pokemon cards. Just because I am a teen doesn’t mean I and a few others around the world like pokemon.

Actually, I'm an adult and I still love pokemon no matter what. I would like to offer a bit of a compromise, Have pokemon stay as a kid show but raise the stakes when it comes to battles, dangers etc. What do you think?
