>>51175068I had a vivid dream once of a side scrolling shooter Pokemon game similar to Contra. Each character was part of a special police force, similar to Astral Chain, tasked with protecting humanity from dangerous legendary and Kaiju sized Pokemon. You would run around stages shooting everything, and most enemies and bosses were either humans or enemy Pokemon. Bosses were all insane, like a a battle with Rayquaza as you fall through the sky or an underground escape from an awakened Groudon. There was also a level running through a city avoiding attacks from a mechanized gigantic Golurk as you work your way to the rooftops so you can fight it. Every playable character was named after playing cards and could run n gun, slide, climb, and use 4 Pokemon for specials: everyone got one Pokemon for flying levels, one for racing levels, one as a "tank" to guard them, and then a screen clearing "special attack" Pokemon. You could also swap out your "guide" mon who floated around and offered some sort of passive buffs. I was such an autist back in the day that I used to write up all these ideas and save them in Google Docs. So... Here ya go. Laugh at me.
