I think I finally found the solution to make fans of PLA and traditional gameplay happy, let’s use gen 2 as an example, game starts normal, gameplay like the 2d games until you reach ruins of Alph, in that area the game switches to PLA gameplay, after you leave the area the game goes back to traditional gameplay, basically 2d routes with traditional gameplay with pocket areas for PLA type of gameplay, it’s the perfect balance gameplay wise and it could be made with relative ease by GF, GF is good at the topdown stuff and it wouldn’t be too hard for them to make smaller open world areas inbetween, that would also assure that the game would look better too, so what do you say? Is this a bad or a good idea? What would be your perfect Pokémon game that could be made?
