Actually not a terrible idea. It's pretty clear that TPC isn't going to put effort into the mainline games. Live service games are becoming more popular nowadays, a game with direct integration with home specializing in competitive would not only give us a game with better graphics (since focus will be far more consolidated), but it will also give our competitive teams/bros a safe place to live, since we don't have to download them from the internet everytime we want to use them. Also, as much as I hate the term live service, I feel like it would work well for Pokémon. Having a small team gradually add new battle types, introduce new frontier heads, stadiums, special events for rare items that can be transferred to the mainline games. All while relieving stress on the developers, since they will now be purely single-player focused games/wont have to focus on battle facilities.
