In my personal taste. I'd sure enjoy a storyline taking the best of Black/White and Red/Blue and center it to focus in your own experience, your own adventure. Nothing more to save. You are your personal hero, nobody else's.
I insist. Pokemon must be part of your in-game character development. That's why I think your starter must take part in that story, dialoguing with the Main Character and highlighting this character development. Each starter should have a different type of personality (like a lazy but determined grass starter, a hotheaded but energetic fire starter, and a sarcastic but intelligent water starter), more or less like in Mystery Dungeon. Kinda like Cheren/Bianca in BW, but well done.
You'd be able to box it once you beat the E4.
