why can't the games be this soulful? Why are every Pokémon you encounter just a soulless flat creature with 3 facial expressions? The closest we've gotten are the Mystery Dungeon series.

Pokemon was and will never be good. It has always been about the money.

The game designers hate Pokemon and don't want them to have soul and depth, hence why Meowth couldn't talk in Let's Go Eevee and Pikachu. PMD was different because it was developed by a third party company.

The anime is the antithesis of soul. Look at what happened to Shudo whenever he tried to insert soul.

the fact that this gif gives scrafty 1000 times more personality than the previous 3 generations have given him. Same for every other Pokémon than pikachu/meowth/starters.

What exactly do you want? One-off, highly-detailed animations for every single pokemon, with no applications in battle?

Yes.
but take it further.
>every pokemon should interact with the player or the environment in cute and unique ways.
>small pokemon should hop on the player's shoulder/big pokemon should be rideable
>if you have multiple pokemon out, they should be able to interact in unique ways
>a pokemon's mood should be visible on it's entire body, the way it carries itself - not just it's facial expression
>if you stand still for a while, your pokemon sit down and eventually take a nap

it's not that hard. hire me gamefreak.

Multiplayerfags and competitivefags throw a shitfit any time something is added to the game that doesn't directly impact muh big numbers
Your best bet is Snap, MD or Ranger, its amazing what this franchise can do when it is single-player only and removes the absolute cancer that is multiplayer gaming.

>Snap
A short, overly linear borefest?
>MD
A game that ascribes shallow anime personalities to Pokemon and literally only gives them 3 facial expressions?
>Ranger
Which has some of the worst gameplay in any DS game ever made? And also has barely anything to do with Pokemon besides them being a setpiece for player advancement?

Think I'll pass.

also:
>when you move, after standing still for a while, your pokemon will be like :O and run to catch up with you
>pokemon will play in puddles
>fire pokemon will look scared while surfing (and try to get as high as possible on your body)
>if you have a pokemon of the same species as a wild pokemon, then they will go to meet eachother and interact.
>if you sit on a bench, your pokemon will sit as well
>pokemon with a gimmick will perform certain actions at random, like smeargle that will sometimes give you paintings of places you've been, or swablu sitting on top of other trainer's heads, or drifloon will be suspiciously interested in small children.

My expectations are, in fact, low enough I can enjoy the main games just fine. They're not low enough to where I can enjoy the genuine pigslop many of the spinoffs are. Sorry.

metagamefags are ridiculous. people throw fits in minecraft when they add blocks with no application outside of being decorative.
it doesnt help them speedrun, pvp or make cool redstone powered farms so they shit their pants

If you throw their pokeball to the ground (not battle or interactable stuff) sometimes they're just sleeping. Also if you throw a pokeball to another one of your pokemon they'll face each other and play random animations as if they were talking with each other.

They've been trying to accomplish exactly this sort of thing since XY, while people insist that pixelart was more expressive apparently.
