>>35552049>Hopes-Kanto is expanded upon and offers more wide space/open areas than Kalos/Alola ever did
-After beating E4 Jhoto or Alola unlocks with a lot of solid content that keeps you going ~70+
-They keep the story light and cutscenes short and skippable
-Pokemon Ride is not a thing and instead you just teach certain pokemon up to 2 "skills" that dont take up a moveslot for use in the overworld
(yes, Surf, fly, rock smash, cut, etc should be removed and moves entirely for this as well)
-All pokemon up to a certain height can walk along side you
>Expectations-Pokemon Go type ball throwing mechanics using gyro found in switch (accuracy awards better RNG)
-It's gonna look not much better than Gen 7
-Pokemon Go integration might tie into cosmetics (or other items)
-Rival will be more of an asshole like Blue was but still get the redemption arc by the end
-Still easy as piss but probably better to nuzlocke
-Oak is still the professor
-More than the OG 151 will be available in the national dex because you're definitely going to be able to get umbreon, Leafeon, etc in the main game.
