>>52826105With the BDSP concept art and the modern day protaganist's room hidden away in the PLA game files I think we can say for definite that full-scaled SwSh-style Sinnoh remakes were planned but scrapped when they released Sinnoh was just too complex and would've had to be dumbed down to work with the SwSh engine.
I think this is the image that makes me the most angry. Look at how they expanded the Great Marsh. It was clearly going to be made into a Wild Area, with the train acting as some kind of fast travel. It could've even been connected to Solaceon Town and Veilstone City, allowing you to explore parts of it before even reaching Pastoria City. Fuck GAME FREAK.
