I think that it could be the opposite, with many Pokemon becoming Fire-type so they could better survive the harsh winters.
That's the joke.Instead of everything becoming Ice-type, everything now becomes Fire-type.
How original.
There was one of those in ORAS too, though.wooden cutouts where you put your face in, the same kind in Platinum's Pastoria City.
Even then, Platinum somewhat fixed this by adding the Magmar and Houndour lines, as well as Flareon. I believe that the Sinnoh Dex will build off of Platinum's 210, with many Pokemon in post-game areas added to the regional dex because of Dexit.Having more Fire-types available in the Sinnoh dex will help its diversity though, no more having to rely just on the Rapidash line because you didn't pick Chimchar.
I do agree that the Sinnoh remakes would be heavily simplified compared to the original games.Well... I've managed to beat Leon, and MY WORD!!! Was he a powerhouse. Especially his Charizard which truly off guard. Especially when using a Grass Type move on my Dynamax Dreadnaw. If he's THAT powerful and unexpecting, I hate to see Cynthia's Gigantamax Garchomp and how that performs in the Gen 4 Remake for 2020.
Although I can guarantee since Iwata's passing in 2015, that the Gen 4 Remake will be dumb down, lacking features, rushedness and faults here and there. At least with SwSh, at least they're still playable. (In fact is having Iwata around that Pokemon used to be so much more before becoming ill when Gen 6 was in production).
Just as Diantha is a match for Steven, I think Cynthia has found her match with Leon when it comes to strongest Champions. Even their chemistry have some credibility to them, both are always helping the player, both were there to stop a mastermind and the Legendary Pokemon, and both are highly powerful trainers. Only difference is that Leon is the one who gives the player the starter. I wonder something similar could happen to the Gen 4 Remake since this is the new direction GF is going?
Pokemon had never been the same since Iwata died. r.i.p.I do agree that the Sinnoh remakes would be heavily simplified compared to the original games.
I have to disagree with the notion that breaking the traditional Pokemon formula is only a bad direction for the series to go and is leading the franchise downhill. While X and Y did stick to tradition, that means nothing since the games themselves are really lackluster, especially next to their more innovative successors. Tradition didn't do anything for those games, didn't make make them good in my opinion. I would much rather have GameFreak experiment (to an extent) rather than retread the same path they've been on since 1996. There's a point where it becomes stale. Of course, not all change is good, but what you listed--Leagues, Gyms, Champions, and Teams--are things I'm fine with GameFreak changing as they aren't as tethered to the foundation of the series as, say, the battle mechanics for example in my opinion.Despite it's faults, XY was the last Pokemon game with a traditional League, traditional Gyms, traditional evil Team, traditional Champion. Gen 7 from where it started going more downhill was the last to have the Elite Four.
I figure GameFreak is in a safe spot considering Pokemon is a system seller for Nintendo. They can just pump out a low-effort Kanto remake if they need funds to fuel their non-Pokemon projects.And to top it off with mobile games and micro-transactions becoming the next money-makers, how will GF survive, especially when they truly want to make other than Pokemon.
That's just the sort of thing I would expect from a divisive Pokemon community. At least the Digimon Fandom (From what I've heard) is less toxic. I guess that's what's to expect for something with a stapled name as the highest grossing media franchise in the world. Since what happened last year, I have learn't a lot of things and how toxicity and arguing can cause more harm than good. I do not look at it in a positive manner, I look what it's inner workings and whether or not it's worth a single penny. I was unfortunate to get a refund for my copy of Sword on the eshop so I had no choice but to see the game for myself. It's still a challenge, I can tell you that, but all the same, I wish GF could do more with this.I have to disagree with the notion that breaking the traditional Pokemon formula is only a bad direction for the series to go and is leading the franchise downhill.

This one is a necessity for me. I almost never buy potions so I am screwed over 90% of the time.your team being healed at many points throughout the game
I expect to be teleported a lot more, too. Like after meeting Cyrus in Celestic town, they just teleport you to Jubilife City's west exit so you don't get lost on your way to Canalave or something. I'm also hoping that some of the gym puzzles make it into a remake intact; Sinnoh had some of the best gym designs in the series, in my opinion.I would probably expect things like an always on EXP share, your team being healed at many points throughout the game, many of the challenging puzzles being simplified (although, this one is due to HMs being gone), etc.
Cynthia will probably be made easier anyways because Fairy-types now exist.I expect to be teleported a lot more, too.

I wonder if GF will rebalance the game if they keep the EXP share on? I want to remain hopeful they will, but I honestly doubt it given their apparent stances and difficulty regarding SwSh. DPPt always seemed to have a decent level curve to me (up until Cynthia, kind of), so I reeeeally don't want it to be as easy as some players are finding SwSh right now.
