Pokemon can be so much more.

An MMOish Pokemon is what you are making it sound like, and to that I say no thanks. Pokemon is perfect with the turn-based combat and strategy, and the contained worlds.

No it's not. Like I said, Destiny, Watch Dogs, Journey, The Division, and Dark Souls are all not MMOs. That is the kind of online shared world I am talking about.

Yeah, even worse. I don't want my Pokemon game to be online dependent. I'm still playing Pokemon Silver to this day, what happens when the server goes down on this shared world? Also, people coming in and out of my world randomly is a lot more immersion-breaking too.

Pokemon has always been a single-player franchise, if you want something different there are plenty of options. There is no need to gut Pokemon for that.
