ok let me give it a shot
>increase hand holding and the amount of insufferable cutscenes, keep xy level difficulty. maybe slower than usual battle animations.
>bait the fans with replacing one of the repeated elements everyone got tired of with somenthing new, for example gym battles, except its a really dumbed down version of them, put some needless stupid minigames before it, and make the game as linear as ever, so nothing changed expect gyms are replaced by the new mechanic.
>bait the fans again with fake hints of a different story, for example hyping up the bad guys but making them completely useless the whole game, making a new kind of pokemon, perhaps alien invaders, but keep their relevance postgame only. also make some characters look like said pokemon for no fucking reason but to bait further.
>make one rival a dumbed down version of barry, as for the other 'rival' we should bait the fans into thinking they will be plot relevant and then not even give them pokemon or make them battle.
did i ruin pokemon yet?
