>>50462814I'm curious what would happen if Tajiri would be direct of one more Pokemon game.
Story-wise I expect something bit darker? Like, showing aftermatch of corruption that was happening in Kanto and slowly was creeping its way into Johto, potentially with return of Giovanni that for what we know was still training during GSC.
So...
> Game happening in Kanto and Johto, with potentially some new locations sprinkled around.> Kanto heavily industrialized with little to no natural places left. Most Pokemon struggle to survive in small, desolate and hard to reach places, with exception being species that are fine in urbanized environments.> Game happens few years after GSC.> Urbanization in Johto reached beyond Goldenrod and Olivine but still is not as bad as in Kanto.> With Red and Gold going hermit mode there's nobody to stop Rockets after Giovanni's return from his training.> Continuation of Mewtwo experiments? We had in GSC small confirmation that some remains of it stayed around Cerulean Cave (Berserk gene).I know that it sounds like bad fanfic but considering how Tajiri was really into traditional values, nostalgia and environmental messages I can imagine him going this way. "This is what will happen if we don't stop" kind of message.
