Open world
companion pokemon
~50 new pokemon, only 2 or 3 new legendaries (and keep them hidden don't force them into the story)
get rid of megas & z-moves
actually decent graphics
bring back secret bases
bring back gyms, make it 10 instead of 8
no world-saving shit, and no new evil teams either
actually competitive rival
lots of postgame content
speed up the battle system and make it WAY less text-reliant
voice acting for key characters
a large map that's actually fun to explore and not just a tedious rush to the next town
dynamically-generated trainers that move around instead of 1 or 2-time battles locked into one location forever
>>34895269this would be great. I know "BotW with Pokemon" has been repeated to death, but they really should reexamine every aspect of the franchise as was done with Zelda. Pokemon has been way too bogged down with old mechanics and "traditions"
>>34897593i'm excited that they might actually have to try for once, but am still fully expecting SuMo HD Kanto Edition
