Pokemon Sun And Moon: 10 Things Fans Demand

10. More Customisation For Characters

We'll start with the most superficial of issues here. It's 2016, and games have allowed you to put together a pretty realistic likeness of your face and your #personalbrand since The Sims first dropped some 15 years ago. Pokemon needs to catch up.

No matter what age you are, you've picked up the latest Pokemon game because deep down you wished it was real. It's not though, and their exploits into augmented reality are going to be terrible, so just let players make a blocky recreation of their own face as accurately as possible. Maybe even throw in the 2/3DS' many camera functions and get a scan going for added realism.

Then let them dress up however they want. Chuck in enough varying costumes for players to either get a sense of their own style in the game, or or the sort of things they'd never wear in the real world (fedora with a feather in it, chainmail, those disco shoes with this fish in them - but secretly want to.

Maybe even get some brands involved and offer it out as DLC. I'd personally spend actual money that I have earned in my real-life job on a pair of Yeezys to wear in game, and you're lying if you say you wouldn't too. Whatever they do, they just make it so that when you're online you're never likely to see the same looking trainer twice, and that they stop forcing players to wear a hat.
