>>54866712I really think they should just bring all gimmicks back, I don't care how bad that would be for competitive scene.
If anything, I thinking they should do a separate game focused only on battles with sets of rules for every gimmick, with an ability to transfer your mons from mainline games, and with an ability to see fancy battle animations
And then focus mainline games on more "mainstream" rpg tropes
Maybe some actual good boss battles against big beasts, overpowered flashy moves and multi battles to give purpose to area attacks outside of competitive and couple of gyms
