Eeveelutions got introduced in every single even# region to date, but they could break precedent here. I would like a Dragon evolution to finally finish off all the old special types theme, even though Umbreon was originally slated to be Poison.
In the sense of Link being asleep for 100 years while the world goes to hell when Ganon attacks, waking up to then explore and learn from the other "arguably" 4 elemental based nations, while exposition is delivered via past lost friends still alive or otherwise... yeah, that very much reminded me of A:TLA
This is not a criticism btw, as I loved BOTW. Aside from lore, most of its story happened while traveling and exploring, with a lot of little nuances which added to the overall plot, feel, and orientation of the situation within each kingdom. You felt "apart" of the world, and the endgame villain was kinda like Firelord Ozai, in the sense that his main purpose was this overbearing villain which needed to be defeated in the end once you've mastered the 4 Elements/Sacred Beast.
I'm not as familiar with the Soul series, so perhaps that is a better comparison. If Gen 8 did adopt a similar style, I think it would be the perfect balance between those that want more plot and those who simply want to explore since the two are intertwined.
GF doesn't rely on patterns.
