In previous games, there have been many things that made the game (either as a whole or at certain times) feel annoying or just frustrating. For instance, the post-story game in the past few versions has been very disappointing, and I for one would like to see a brand new perspective and out reach to the post-game by the creators (GF). Just curious to see what other people on here would like to see different in these upcoming games? What mistakes should GF capitalize on to change in these games?

Why hasn't this received any replies yet?? Very interesting topic!
I think the big one for a lot of people will be for us to actually get a decent post-game this time around, because a lot of us are still pretty disappointed with the lackluster post-game we got in X&Y. I'd also like to see this game have a darker, more serious story rather than the simplistic, light-hearted stuff we usually get in Pokémon games. I know Black & White already did that, but X&Y was a big step backward in that regard, so I hope they go back to the darker style of Black & White.
Oh, and a big one for me would be, no more friendly rivals -_- it'd be awesome if this game had hostile rivals like Blue and Silver, that way I don't have to feel bad kicking their butts across the region.

XY had multiple rivals and they were pretty bad tho. Same for ORAS with his Mega Gallade that didn't do much.

There are three things that I care about the most and want fixed in Pokemon:
- Removal of HM system, swap with something more interesting and less irritating.
- Ability to change the nickname of traded Pokemon.
- Story that isn't cliched and doesn't follow the exact same formula.
There are other things I'd like, but I really hope they do these three things above all.

5th gen tier story, improved difficulty system, the return of a jerk rival and good postgame (PWT please) and sidequests parallel to the main story.

I'd LOVE to have a Pokemon gave where your actions could produce different outcomes.

Seeing as the names could be fitting, here is my suggestions:
-A darker, more enjoyable story. Sure, it's for little kids, but that doesn't stop the writers from making the game dark (see Earthbound for example).
-A better post-game, but as this might be based on Southern Kalos, we might get to go through 16 gym leaders again.
-Add in a hard and/or easy mode like in B2 and W2, the hard move ramping of the challenge. Alternatively, we can have NG+ file that makes the game way harder and gives incentives to play it.
-Harder rivals. I'm tired of pubstomping my rivals.
-As Sopheria said, I was more hostile rivals. I want an incentive to utterly destroy their team, whether if their a complete dick or immoral.
-Add in the World Championships like they did in BW2.

Black & White had a darker story compared to its predecessors, so they were going on the right track. X & Y also had a bit of darkness to its plot, given Team Flare wanted to eliminate anyone not associated with them, which is pretty much genocide.
Something more minor that I want to see removed is the "very tall" grass (like Hoenn's Route 119/120, Sinnoh's Route 210 etc) because 6th Gen made it more pointless by allowing bicycles to now ride in it, and I hated it in 6th Gen because it literally conceals you and that makes it hard to see where you're going. I imagine it'll be a huge annoyance if the concept art showing what the overworld looks like is proven to be legit.

Ontop of that, I would like them to expand more on making battles look more dynamic and action-packed so they actually are enticing and adrenaline-pumping.
