>>46459978Return the series to it's original style.
Watercolors, sense of mystery, 90s retro futurism, a sense of adventure, and an environmental message that our world is precious and ought to be explored and appreciated with those you care about.
Wouldn't actually shitcan non-gen 1 generations but every single Pokemon that gets brought back in a future game would be put through a slight redesign which just takes all the simple approximations for body parts they have and reverts them into being inspired by actual animal anatomy ala gen 1 and 2. No perfect shapes all over a design ever again. Any designs that are fundamentally incompatible with this philosophy (mostly gen 8 Pokemon, Centiskorch and it's nonsense body come to mind right away) would actually get the boot, or be retconned to be man-made or a result of modern technology if possible.
Revert the game style to 2D pixel people in a 3D world ala the DS. Just bump up the graphics up as the technology allows. 2D style battles just with extra bells and whistles like backgrounds and slightly better animation (NOT looping gen 5 style jesus lord)
Allows gamefreak to dodge all the hurdles models come with and focus on the games, some thing like following Pokemon is a lot more possible when you don't need to animate a walking, running, standing, and idle animation at minimum.
