What if you actually had people following you during your journey like in the anime and they give you advices, help you in battles where the opponent is made to be much stronger than you, intervene a lot in plot development or SoL sidestories just like the anime?
What if we had Shadow Pokemon finally back acting as the counterpart to Mega-Evolutions?
What if we had a huge games with all the existing regions connected and all of the Pokemon available (well, version-exclusive aside)
>>25005860That's an interesting thought. I like it.
>>25006814Actually, that like Megaman games I'd say. To be able to do gyms in whatever order means that the games would actually be able to accomodate both "hardcore" gamers and casuals in a clever way. The problem is that it wouldn't change much about the game's scripted nature, and, considering that wild Pokemon and Trainers would level up according to your number of badges, you could very well do it all at once and get a huge advantage.
A good alternative would be to have few Trainers on the road at the beginning of the journey and more and more would appear, along with the chance to rematch those already beaten.
