>>44086295>Mature storyThe problem doesn't come from being mature or not, it all boils down to how it's written and delivered.
>Side questsYeah.
>Complicated evil teamI think evil teams are becoming cliche, hence why I was mildly excited for Rose being the bad guy by himself.. unfortunately, we all know how that went, but yeah.
>Morally grayThat'd be interesting, specially if it's some scenario that can divide the fandom because neither/both sides are good/bad and everyone has their reasons to be/act the way they do
like what's currently happening in Attack on Titan>Darker lorePokemon DOES already have pretty dark lore, but if he means it as a "darker story" then eh.. don't think it can fit Pokemon's image, and if they tried I think it'd end up being really cringy. Not saying it should be cutesy googoogaagaa shit, but going full "and my Charizard slashed my foe's throat and I just stood there watching as his Lucario bled to death" just.. no.
>Out of orders gymThe problem with gyms isn't beating them in order or not, it's them being too fucking easy in general. Shuffling them won't do anything, as they'll keep adjusting to your current level. And assuming they don't, GF will probably go the ALBW route where all dungeons had the exact same difficulty, since the game couldn't know how you did/would do them, and in the end that made ALL dungeons be absurdly piss easy. So just make current gyms tougher with better AI/moves/etc. and that'll be good.
>Jerk rivalI liked SwSh's approach of having one of each kind of rival desu. The hyper friendly one, the casual one, and the jerk one. Seems more realistic in a way, too bad they were barely used, but the idea was nice.
>Actual mysteriesOh yeah, I'd actually really like that.
