- A new Pokemon game but with just the original 150 pokemon, none of the 800,000 new pokemon


A game with only the first 150 pokemon will be very flawed.  As in gen 1, Psychics will be far too powerful, partly as a result of their being no dark pokemon.  There will be no pure ghost pokemon, only ghost/poison; no pure steels, only electric/steels.  Having mewtwo, but no mew will be just weird.  Bug pokemon will be even more shit than they currently are (which would in turn make psychics comparatively better).


Psychics are weak as shit though. Alakazam for example is super fast and has psychic which is super strong, but if you can survive his first attack and hit him with a good normal type move like Body Slam, Hyper Beam, etc. then he's toast. I do admit psychic should have had a good counter in the original 150, but I like it a whole lot better than now when there's like 600+ pokemon. 

And to address bug pokemon being weak as shit, maybe they could tweak the stats slightly (not to make a pokemon like Caterpie useful throughout the game, but just not as pitifully weak) and also I'm not saying they can't add a few new moves to the game like a couple stronger bug type moves. All I really want is the simplicity of just 150 pokemon that I'm highly familiar with, they can do what they want with the human characters, locations, story, etc.
