This actually looks like the coolest thing to come out for the Pokemon series in quite some time, considering there was absolutely zero variation for every game in the series after Ruby and Sapphire. Never understood the appeal of playing what was effectively the same game over and over again with a grind battle system. Pokemon Stadium 1 and 2 were lots of fun, but mainly the minigames and sometimes with showdown battles with friends. This seems like the actual next generation of Pokemon, and it's surprising that it's taken Nintendo so long to do something like this.
