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 would call the new ones not even interesting enough to pirate, so yes.

Something like sword/arceus style but not garbage with mechanics around the gba era.

So no giga dumbshit or similar but still special/physical change.

Also if we're requesting unicorns be brought to reality, more options. I wouldn't hate the all the new giga shit if I could disable its cutscenes. It wasn't even cool the first time.
