Okay, so as a simple video RPG developer, I'm going to be developing a Pokémon alternate continuity ("altcon" for short) video game franchise, whose E10+ ESRB-rated mainline video games are real-time western RPG-based fighting games with simple RPG elements instead of turn-based JRPGs, the one whose story mode set on the present day in the Pokémon region, in which the players pits a collection of playable fighter and/or usable NPC supporter Pokémon against the opposing Trainers' CPU-based fighter Pokémon in attempt to become the regional Pokémon League Champion. So, by the way, starting Generation I, let me ask you all my own questions?

  1. Which region do you think that that mainline games will be set, Kanto or a different new one?
  2. For National Pokédex numbering, should I include just the Generation I Pokémon, or include both them and their cross-generational pre-evolutions/evolutions, and/or regional forms/evolutions?
  3. Should I include all Baby Pokémon, and/or the Abra, Smoochum and/or Porygon evolutionary lines? Are there any other Pokémon you think I should exclude?
  4. Should I age Pokémon by leveling up and evolve them by aging?
  5. Should I include just single-branched evolutions, and/or multi-branched evolutions?
  6. Should I including temporary transformations like Mega Evolutions, or none of them at all?
  7. To avoid gambling for good, should I include a Rocket Game Corner with arcade machines, or replace it with other building, whether a clothing store or other?
  8. Should I include traditional wild Pokémon battles or a Pokémon GO-esque catching method?
  9. Should I include abilities, held items, breeding, eggs, ridable Pokémon, Sevii Islands?
  10. Anything else you think I should include just to make the gameplay mechanics more interesting, whether or not similar to those from the Pokémon Legends subseries?

Why do you think? Please let me know, thanks.😉
