If they really wanted the movie to make as much money as possible while also being as good as possible it would need
>Only prominently feature Gen 1 and 2 pokemon
If Pokemon Go taught us anything, its that normies love pokemon as long as its THEIR pokemon. The movie needs to pander to nostalgiafags just as hard (or not hard) as GO did. Even if that means only including pokemon from their childhood. Obviously future gens should still be in the movie, but as either background decorations or at most pokemon belonging to minor characters
>Create a perfect mix between the video games and the anime
As everyone knows, the anime and video games have completely different fandoms a lot of the time. I really don't know anybody offline who both watches the anime and plays the games. Thats why the best solution is to mix together aspects from both to create a definitive pokemon story. If it was up to me:
>Main character is named Red instead of Ash
>Despite this, the rivals name is still Gary, and Jessie and James are still the main villains of Team Rocket
>His starter is a Charmander, but he has to take on the burden of taking care of Pikachu at the request of Professor Oak
>Brock and Misty are both main characters, but are originally Gym Leaders before traveling with Red to bring down Team Rocket
>Hit a lot of the games main notes with scenes like a sleeping snorelax blocking the path, etc
Also, the most obvious one,
>Age most of the characters up to around 16 or 17
