    Just for fun I was worldbuilding a bit, might turn this into a Fan Game/Rom Hack.
    Version names are Balance and Chaos. Region is based on an combination of Greece,Italy, and Egypt, having a distinct Mediterranean vibe. The main themes of the plot will be corruption and redemption. Was thinking both versions will be more like alternate universes of each other with different story points, giving an actual reason for buying both. If you own both versions, it combines bits and pieces of both games into each other. The major new gimmicks is the return of Shadow Pokemon, now a mainline game feature, and Radiant Pokemon. Radiant Pokemon is a brand new mechanic based a little off the Gen 2 TCG set Light Forms. Radiant forms are an upgraded version of regular Pokemon that you purified or you formed a strong bond with meaning max friendship and max affection combined. They gain enhanced stats probably 100 total like Mega Evolution but for all Pokemon. Pokemon gain access to new movesets, unlocking attacks that were completely not usable before. You can use 6 of each, but I plan an upgraded version of Shadow and Radiant that's only usable once per battle. Shadow Pokemon is built off of XD Gale of Darkness, almost exactly the same but with bigger shadow type movepool with higher variety. Shadow type is super effective to every normal type out of the main 18, resistant to itself, and immune to Radiant type. Vice versa with Radiant type.
    Supreme Radiant and Shadow forms may have new types, like terastalizing and gain a stat buff to it's best stat immediately on switch in as well.
    New regional variants and cross gen evolutions are:
    Tentacool, Tentacruel, and new Tentaghoul inspired by a Man o war jellyfish and a Roman Centurion style head. Fighting/Poison
    Gorochu is actually real now being one of the series first and only 4th stage evolutions, with two variants based on regular Raichu and Alolan Raichu. Electric/Dragon and Electric/Water
    Hippopotas and Hippowdon. Poison/Ground, because I wanted a new hippo form but not just Water/Ground for the Nile based area.
    Wingull/Pelipper Normal/Flying
    Riolu/Lucario and new Rionubis based even more off Anubis. Ghost/Fighting
    Ekans/Arbok and new Serparbok Ground/Dark

    New fully evolved starter forms:
    Feraligatr Dragon/Ground based on a Nile crocodile living in a more arid region than regular
    Serperior Fairy/Water based on a water dwelling snake that uses it's charm to lure in prey
    Blaziken Electric/Fighting based on a combination of a gladiator and an eagle, eagles are huge in Greek mythology.

    Legendary Pokemon:
    Trio based on the main Greek/Roman gods
    Zeus is based on a falcon Electric/Flying. Trying to think of a better type
    Poseison is based on a horse/unicorn Water/Steel. Horses were created by Poseidon in myths, more unique than just a sea monster.
    Hades is based on Cerberus the three headed dog Fire/Ground. This one sounded cool, we need a cerberus type mon already.

    Quartet based on main Egyptian gods
    Bast is based on a Manx Cat, Fairy/Ghost
    Osiris
    Seth
    Ra
    Still trying to plot these out

    Story is in an alternate third version seperate of the infinity timeline and prime timeline
    The war in Kalos 3000 years ago created Shadow and Radiant forms instead of Mega Evolution
    Plot culminates in an evil cult like organization summoning Arceus only to corrupt it using the Distortion Ball. Distortion Ball will be based on the lore of the Origin Ball, but can tame even the most powerful Mythicals and make them Shadow type. The player sides with Giratina, having become Radiant upon being captured in the Enlightenment Ball. This ball can purify and make any Pokemon Radiant. A fiercely intense fight begins having the assistance of Dialga and Palkia and the lake trios. Sinnoh legends were summoned accidentally through the portal bringing Arceus. The world is left scarred and at a crossroads where things may get better or worse. Chaos version has a darker ending resulting in the "death" of the player, really having been sent to the future
    Balance ends with Arceus being stopped and purifed, Arceus sends you to the past to help right the wrongs of the past
    These set up one or two potential sequels in Legends games now called Legends: Balance and Legends: Chaos
