What we need now tho, is to replace gamefreak with a competent developer AND bring back Yamana (the director of the orre games) and Tawada (the composer of colo, GoD and Battle revolution). A third Orre game with that amount of effort, but with todays capabilities (they had to build the entire battle system and 3d models and all of that back in the GC days, imagine what they would do with the switch)
