So, I've barely played any of the numerous Pokémon spin-off games. I played about half of the first PMD game and a tiny bit of PMD2, so I'm not exactly well-versed. Because of that, I've been reading about some of these games, and I found myself thinking: some of these features would be really cool in a main series game!

For example, Shadow Pokémon. Cleansing their dark auras is the main goal of XD/Colosseum, but that'd make a fairly interesting feature in a main series game. I doubt they'd ever base an entire game on that, but perhaps adding some kind of post-game sidequest where a few Pokémon got turned into their dark forms and you got to catch a few of them. We all know the Pokémon games don't have nearly as many real sidequests as they could, so adding something relatively simple like this might be kinda fun.

Also, procedural generation for dungeons like in PMD would be pretty interesting! I'm not really sure how that would work with Trainers and whatnot - or really how you would successfully adapt it into a normal game at all haha. Looking for opinions on that one in particular.

Do you think these features would fit well into main series Pokémon games? What others would you suggest?

I'd really love the option to become a Pokemon Ranger in the main games, it could be a post-game thing and only featuring a few missions but that would be a really cool throwback to the original Ranger games.
