Do you think there need to be some Pokemon games that cater to an older audience, instead of all of them targeting children?
Isn't this more of a Western idea than anything? I'm pretty sure Pokemon was always meant to be enjoyed by everyone; Game Freak just has to consider all age groups, which is why it may look like it's targeted towards a younger audience.
Having that said, I do think the newer games hold your hand a bit too much. Hand holding in games isn't fun at all, but getting stuck and lost once in awhile and having to go figure out things on your own is and I want to experience more of that in Pokemon games.
Another thing that I'd like to change is how HM moves works. Another post in this thread mentioned the idea of skills, and I could totally get behind this idea. Instead of always having to waste a move slot for a HM move, you let your Pokemon have it as a skill instead. If you still want to teach a HM move to a Pokemon normally (like Surf or Waterfall), you can of course do that too.
