Would you like to see a mainline Pokemon game created in the old style? (lemmings.world)

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 originally had it on, I think, a medium or normal difficulty. It was a while ago.

Like I said, though, it wasn't that it was easy. I liked the modular difficulty system a lot! The game just felt like a checklist. Pokémon gives you a mechanic (like the HMs of old or modern rideable Pokémon, or the bikes), and you really could play with them for quite some time exploring and experimenting. The only parts of Coromon I felt had that was the item finding app thing and the raft thing. The rest were just "get it, move on, never use it again."

I will give it that if your only goal is to have a battle with your friends game, Coromon is amazing! But if you want to enjoy the world, maybe not.

Still worth trying for anyone who likes Pokémon for the mechanics.
