Just an idea for a 'remake':
Revisiting Kanto (and possibly Johto) but 20 years on from RBY, living in a new area and taking the gyms on differently. Just a suggestion, and I don't expect people to agree exactly but maybe something along the lines of starting in Cerulean city, with Bill now becoming the resident professor after Oak. He gives out the starters (maybe the same, maybe different I don't know), and the player begins their journey.
Some gym leaders will have left, or moved on to the E4. Some gyms might be relocated and have entirely new types - I like how Cinnibar Island got destroyed so maybe the Pokemon League decided to move that gym to Lavender Town, and a new ghost type leader took over (Agatha's granddaughter?) or whatever.
Then the player goes round the cities in a new order - Saffron isn't blocked - chasing after a new villainous team. Maybe the team could be after all of Oak's and Mr Fuji's old research papers after their retirement, I'm just trying to think of a reason to make the player go to Pallet Town. That would mean that the final showdown could occur in the same place as most people's first ever Pokemon battle, as the player takes on the team leader in a fight in (on top of?) Oak's old lab as the legendary birds swarm overhead.
In my head this game would have slightly darker tones than the original (the villainous team actually causing some damage) but that's just how I see it. It would be a new game but with a chance to implement new mechanics into a favoured generation. Anyway, just an idea off the top of my head.
