I'm talking about a new game but made with old graphics and mechanics similar to Megaman 9 & 10.

I personally think such a thing could sell gangbusters and honestly go on record as one of the greatest Pokemon games ever made, especially in recent years.

I hate all the gimmicky mechanics so, I’d be down with getting rid of all that stuff like go back to gen1 before berries and holding items to increase power and stuff.

But I do not want to have to switch boxes to hold Pokémon on the PC or have limited storage for held items.

I wouldn’t mind a 2d version, but maybe they could draw inspiration from the Zelda 2d remakes.
