>>48568122Australia is a clear contender for the next Pokemon game. Everything that GF has done seems to be heading in for this direction.
>Connections with UK/Galar>Entire region being just wild area, due to the actual basis being very vast and mostly unpopulated with few cities far and wide apart.>Plenty of unique environments, and will be the first time that GF will actually tackle a actual continent instead of a small area of a larger continent.>Animals that can't be found anywhere else in the world, which leads to the region having more of it's own identity.Now the actual games themselves
>No famous Australian animals for starters. They're just common animals that you see all the time.>More regional formes than regular forms, due to the region's distance from rest of the world. Such pokemon include Rolycoly that becomes a actual truck/train, used for travelling across off-road through the region.>More new Pokémon than existing Pokémon, due to reasons above.>Objectmon pseudo legendary. No boring shit like a regular dragon.>You don't play as a trainer, but you're now a newly starting professor who's out to explore and discover the region fully for the first time. Australia region is also set in 20th century, closer to RBY Kanto's era.>More story focused and open-ended, with side quests more of a major part of game's progress which affects the difficulty of trainer battles even to closing and opening up paths in region.>Story that's not about preventing a universe-destroying event. But rather it is defeating a UB invasion from a place that they call it "Dreamtime", with a team taking a opportunity to keep these powerful creatures to own the region's Pokémon League and introducing them into wild.>4th evolutions are a thing, with Megas and Gigas being turned into regular evolutions. However, the new evolutions take upon on a different battle build which lends them being more of a optional thing.
