But really, I just want this game to be different. Like a one off thing where Pokemon gets experimental. This is supposed to be a celebration. It's the 20th anniversary game. I suggested this, but maybe let people choose their starter from any generation. Starters have already been trivialized. They aren't special anymore, so screw trying to make them so.

Follow Super Mystery Dungeon's example. Let players choose from all the traditional starters from every generation, and maybe a few one off ones like Pikachu and Lucario. Make this region different. Does it really need a gym system with types? The stat trainers were a great idea. N's weather teams in B2W2 were a great idea. maybe do something like that. Get weird with this game, and make it actually feel like an anniversary. Make it truly feel like fan service.

Same with the plot. Even though I think there will be a few new Pokemon, I almost hope there won't be. Even if there are, I feel like they should make the story fan service, too. Give us a bunch of Looker-quality cameos. Have characters like Red and Blue (and Yellow/Green/Leaf/whatever you personally call her) be integral to the plot. Bring back fan favorites like N, Cynthia, Steven, etc. This region doesn't need to have a cookie cutter plot. Make it weird.
