>>46984314As someone who shits on Sword and Shield as well as Snap. I'd happily pay 60 dollars for a full on Stadium style battle simulator. I don't need any story. I don't need any mini games. I don't even need to be able to walk around and explore or have a campaign mode. Here's what I'd ask for.
-Best trainer customization ever, combining what Pokken offers you as well as the mainline games. The ability to make your avatar an adult, teenager, or child, with tons of clothing options and pokeball options.
-many unique attack animations for every single pokemon. I want every commonly used move on every pokemon to have a unique animation. I'll use Charizard as an easy as fuck example, don't think too much about it. Id want a unique animation for flamethrower, flare blitz, solar beam, seismic toss, dragon pulse, dragon claw, air slash, sunny day, fire/thunder punch. If you have to use stock animations for other, generic unexpected moves, fine, but I want a unique animation for the 12 most common moves on every fully evolved pokemon. Not fully evolved guys can have like, 6 instead or something.
-A bunch of different battle arenas with as much going on in them to make them interesting as the ones in Pokken, except you'll be able to see your trainer and the opponent trainer in the background, giving commands or something I don't know.
-A dedicated announcer with tons of relevant voice lines like in Stadium, calling out the Pokemon by name, getting excited for critical hits, the announcer could even replace all the shitty messages about being buffeted by hail, recovering with leftovers, etc.
Basically what I'm asking for is the absolute best, premium battling experience possible at the expense of all else. It doesn't even have to be a game beyond this, which is why I don't think the things I'm asking for are unreasonable. Oh, and of course I'd like at LEAST Snap/Pokken levels of detail on every single pokemon. I'll pay 60 dollars for that, happily!
