>wild area would be the perfect opportunity to have actual interactivity with the environment
>you could spot Pokemon miles away through binoculars or something and run in their direction to catch them
>Pokemon could hide in holes, bushes and trees as you approach and you'd have to sneak or crawl
>Pokemon could be fighting with one-another in the overworld
>Pokemon could gang up on you in horde battles if you approach a group of Wooloo or something
>you could use your own Pokemon to fly, traverse the lake, climb rocks and mountains and do other cool shit, just combine the Pokeride mechanics with the ride Pokemon of LGPE
>instead Pokemon just spawn 5 meters away from you and run in a grid-like manner for 2 minutes before despawning, sometimes they may attack you; traversal is limited to a Rotom-bike
